Lovin' a blank stretched canvas

Okay so one of them is upcycled, but some are actually brand new - as in I peeled-the-plastic-off-of-them brand new,  if you can believe it - and it's so marvelous!  Thanks to people who give me blank canvases as birthday/Christmas gifts. :)

So here are a few canvases I've done recently to share with you.
Nothing totally awesome or anything, just what I've been up to!

I use stencils for all my words.  I'm a stencil kind of girl.
Okay so if you can't tell, this one is the upcycled canvas.  If you flip it over, you can still see the outline of a large seashell.  Pretty sure it came out of a nautical themed bathroom from 1982.

Pin It

This is one of the first paintings I ever did actually, but it was so "blah" so I stenciled on the word "REJOICE".
It, along with the gray and white ones, is for sale at Fabulous Darling in Brooklyn, MI.
"Be Still and Know" is for sale in my Etsy shop.  

Stop in and have a look!
