French blue shutters 30

Mona Pendleton | Friday, July 29, 2016 @ 5:37 AM | Oil Painting

Happy Friday! Any big weekend plans? Today I have a 12" x 12" painting to share of French blue shutters that was inspired by Dreama Tolle Perry's e-course Dream, Love, Paint. I love Dreama's abstract, somewhat whimsical style.

I'm joining along with Paint Party Friday:

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a great weekend!
Be Sweet ;)

Holly AKA KopyKat said...: OMGosh this is so beautiful. Sorry I have been away, I've gone back to school, and in the meantime, you have decided to put your talents into paintings. How fabulous. Love this painting. I attending a "brushes and brews" charity event for the American Heart Association, we painted a cherry blossom...I think I like the beer the best, lol. But your painting is so fabulous. Well done.; Reply July 29, 2016 at 10:29 PM

Cheryl W. said...: This is so pretty! I love pictures of old (but beautiful) windows. Years ago, on a trip to France, I took many photos of gorgeous windows and doors in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, only to have the photo processing company lose them!! They were never recovered, so I only have them in my memory.; Reply July 30, 2016 at 2:35 PM
