So in order to test each color combo and viscocity for my friend’s custom cart
project, I used the back of one of the pieces as a test board.

Knowing it would never really be seen, I had some creative fun. Then I kinda liked it and was sad it would only ever see the gravel road beneath it

When I told my friend he said “Actually. when I empty my gear I stand it upright so the bottom is on full view!”

Then he said to sign the s**t out of it 😂

I definitely see a sea creature traversing multicolored kelp. Do you see anything?

How can you choose one color when each color shifts multiple colors???

My kids always yell at me (with love) for taking so many pictures of moments I want to remember. They scoff. They ick. They scurry.

But you know what??? At the end of every trip yell “text me the best ones Ma!” Or better yet, they grab my phone and text all their faves to themselves.

That being said, and even being ultimately vindicated, I still wanted to remember a special trip in a special way.

Pics were taken but I still wanted to capture how relaxed and happy I felt sitting by the water, playfully chasing down the sunset and watching a fire burn down to the embers on a Summer night.

It’s hard to capture it as a still. There are so many layers of paint, and ink and mica and every angle reflects and refracts differently.

It should be no surprise that this also represents my memories of this trip. Joyful. Complicated. Multi-layered and ultimately beautiful.

Work in progress. There’s no AC in my studio but when you gotta art you gotta art! Laying down the first layers for another seascape. At least I can dream about being by the ocean even when I can’t get there

Listen up, furniture lovers - it's time to step up your game and turn that old piece into a masterpiece. And the key to success? Layers, baby!

Just like a boss babe, your furniture needs layers to show off its true potential. Whether you're aiming for a funky design or a sleek solid color, layering is the name of the game.

Lucky for you, I've got all the deets on my website (and the perfect paint too!) - just hit up that search bar and prepare to become a furniture painting queen. Let's slay, folks! 🎨👑✨ https://tanglewoodworks.com/collections/miss-lillians-no-wax-chock-paint-supplies/chock-paint
