I shared my 2 favorite things I use in almost every painting I do. I will immediately order more when I even start to run low. ✨ These are what I use to get that yummy texture and oil paint look while painting with acrylics. ✨ Artists, what are your must-have tools for painting?

This is a week that has meaning for me. I’m surprised to find myself so emotionally connected to it if I’m going to be honest. But maybe it’s because the 1st anniversary of something is kinda a big deal so the 2nd year marker kinda feels like.. this is just your life now. Not bad but it just is. ✨ The beginning of this year I made a decision. It wasn’t just a “this would be nice” thought but a real line drawn in the sand for me. I know for certain it took what happened in the past to get me to where I am know which is taking action to what I want for my future. ✨ This is more than just a feel good quote. It’s life-changing truth! God always has MORE for us. Let’s ask ourselves at the beginning of this new week, what is 1 step we can take toward the MORE we know is waiting for us ?
I hope you’ve had a great weekend and have been refilled in some way. I actually just got back from a Target run with my youngest. He’s 3 and I hardly ever get to take him anywhere without his 8 month older brother since they are so close in age. • He and I BOTH had so much fun. It was so exciting just to see his personality shine and how much fun he had getting all my attention. Do you have multiple kids? How do you plan hot 1 on1 time? • 17 x 17 acrylic on stretched canvas with rustic gray 3” wood frame. Finally listed in the shop @melissalewisart😊
Happy weekend friends! Who’s painting something this weekend? 🙋🏼‍♀️ I made a video with my FB friends sharing one of my favorite ways I like to add texture into my paintings. I’m all about the detail and this is a great way to add some extra! 💕 You can find this feather available for sale in the shop by clicking the link in my profile @melissalewisart.
I don’t post my hand-lettered prints here that much only because I’m not painting new ones as often as I’m painting on canvas. 🍃 However with Fall on our heels, like it or not my summer lovin’ friends, I thought I’d share a couple of my favs here. 🍃 Who’s ready for Fall weather and pumpkin flavored coffee’s? 🍂Who’s mad at me for reminding them their about to lose out on long days and warm weather? 🙋🏼‍♀️ #melissalewisart
