Getting Started!

So, a little over a week ago I had this desire to sketch something out and paint it on canvas. The last time I had done any type of painting was as a child, so I had low expectations of what my final product would look like but thought I would give it a whirl and try something new!!

Here is my sketch...

 And here is my finished canvas...

This is in honor of my Aunt DeeDee Schalk who was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer in the Spring of 2009. My initial thought was to do a canvas using the word 'Hope', but I feel that 'Faith' is a better description for my Aunt. Her faith is like none other and is such an inspiration to experience.

If you would like to donate to the Susan G. Komen, Walk For Schalk team, you can do so by visiting my team page.

Please keep my Aunt in your prayers along with every other Survivor!

Sooo...what's going to be my next project?!?!

A.) Alabama 'Roll Tide' (Family's favorite college team)

B.) Plainview Bears (Kids' school team)
