Painting on a Grey Day

Today was the kind of day when...


Angus buried himself in an afghan,


Rosie curled up on the sofa (see how dark it was?),


and I went to my laundry room/painting studio to paint fabric!!
I used my Setacolor transparent fabric paints and did some freeform flowers.
I knew that the color would be darker when wet, and that I would probably be
cutting this fabric up later to use for appliqué, but I like the whole garden effect also!

When it dried and I heat set the paint, it looked more like this:


I'll definitely be adding more details and color, but I'm off to a good start!


And, of course, Rosie roused herself from her nap to come downstairs to inspect
 every single move I made! 

We are promised sun tomorrow and it will be nice to see the gloomy weather lift!
Also, I'll be taking photos at the Kidcasso event and exhibit!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!
