I'm not really sure why but I'm already getting ready for Valentine's Day! It might be because I recently had a three day celebration for my birthday so I felt like I wanted to infinitely extend the celebrations! After all you can never have enough chocolate cheesecake or romance! Although of course the most wonderful sort of romance is when your hunny bunny is nice to you every day in thoughtful ways...................although Belgian chocolates are very nice too! [Can you tell I have an, er, problem with chocolate?]
So inspired by the nature artists group I am part of I painted these Sayaca Tanagers against a shifting, dissolving watercolor heart. You can also buy this as a print or throw cushion for a loved one.
What have you got planned for Valentine's day or do you give it a wide berth reckoning it's just an excuse to sell a lot of schmaltzy Hallmark cards and cheap scratchy pink lingerie?
Linking up to Paint Party Friday!

What a cute pillow, perfect gift idea!
ReplyDeleteIn Finland we don't celebrate Valentine's Day like you do but we have similar type day 'a friendship' day.
(I don't need any special day because my hubby is good and nice every day!) :)
That makes a beautiful throw pillow! I usually think throw pillows look a bit odd, but that one fits just perfectly. Happy PPF!
