EstherTb Paints 9 PAINtings Before Christmas 2020

[EstherTb]

So for several reasons I decided to paint everyone in my family a painting this year... To make it easier on myself I'm only giving couples one painting instead of two.

My reason to do this is it'll give me a chance to improve my painting skills while providing Christmas gifts.

So 9 paintings!

Anyway, I have until Christmas to finish all of them!

I have most of the plans down for what I'm going to paint, but if anyone has any ideas or pretty pictures to share that might inspire me, I'll welcome it!

Any other year I would offer to get you reference photo's if need be (plenty of castles and historic building within reasonable distance from here) but alas my area is in strict lockdown at the moment.

I love these paintings! They look so nicely textured and give off this cozy vibe.

BTW, you narrowly avoided me relocating this thread... the '9' and "PAIN" in the title is what saved you. Borderline Exv-related, but I'll allow it.

Here’s to hoping there’ll be a dragonshape deimon in Exvulnerum
