Paint Party #33

I was late posting last week so if you missed my cool mug made out of  one of my paintings you can go here! This week I did this Acrylic for over my fireplace in the family room. It's done on a deep cradle board. I probably needed a larger board for the space but this is all I had for now. It changed so many times before completion.It's very simple but I pride myself on making my home a soft place to fall, so it does make a statement. 

 
Doodle done while watching tv

I grew up in a home that was fraught with constant arguments and conflict, some instigated by liquor. I swore when I raised my daughter life would be calmer for her. Except for about two years of chaos during divorce, I've kept things pretty serene. No matter how bad the day is, we know we can gather for a nice meal with loving people who have sincere concern about how we are. Have a  peaceful weekend everyone!

    I like your doodle as you call it. I think that required a lot of work. Very nice. I also love what you wrote and that you gather at the table together. Very nice. Have a wonderful weekend.
