painted rock

I painted this rock today

(it was the heart shaped one that I picked up at the beach on Whidbey Island a few weeks ago)

in the end I decided it wasn't a heart, but a bird

I have seen hand painted rocks (like Geninne's),

and after many attempts, 

I think I have come up with my very own stylized bird

I feel good about it because I am honesly inspired by other artists

but I also did not want to copy

I had one of those kind of breakthroughs that is so energizing

now I just want to paint lots of rocks

... and I know you get what I mean

;)
