Art is subjective, we all know this...so, this piece of art will be no different. Some of you will look at it and say, "WTH?" And, I am hoping there will be others that will say something along the lines of, "Nice abstract...it's colorful and funky."
Today, I decided I was an artist. This piece was hanging in my great room for years...formerly known as this, my $7.99 purchase from KMart.
It was OK, but I was over it. We recently painted the whole great room and I used it as a chance to do some things differently. So, since this was only $7.99 to start, I decided I would go all "creative" on this! I first painted the inner part with two coats of white. Then it sat in my garage for about two months...until today!
I started by just throwing on some paint willy-nilly...I am not going to lie to you, I had absolutely NO idea where I was going with this!
I didn't like the direction this was going, so I resorted to something that I saw on the HGTV show Color Splash...have you seen it, with that cutie pie David Bromstad? Just love his design and he's such a talented artist. Anyway, I have seen him paint and then use a spray bottle many times on the show. I don't know exactly what's in the bottle, but I decided my liquid of choice would be good old H2O. I figured I couldn't get into too much trouble with that. :) So, I got started, painted and sprayed, painted and sprayed...
Until I had something...I think it resembles a woman. Can you see it?
Now, to convince my husband that we should hang this in our great room! Like I said...subjective. :)

Yes, David Bromstad is definitely a cutie pie!! Nice artwork too. Kind of looks like a broad-shouldered man. Art is viewed by everyone differently, ya know? ;-)
