I painted this vintage ornament earlier in the year with the thought in mind that eventually it would be part of a collection. But I experimented with an unusual background (for me) and didn't know how others would look on this type of background. So I played around with it again.

| Vintage Ornament 1 |
I just finished painting another vintage ornament and went ahead and used the same background.
Here are the steps:
 |
| I painted the board with turquoise and worked some raw umber in along the edges. |
 |
| Then I put a taupe color on top, allowing the paint to dry out as I reached the edges and I sketched the ornament in. |
 |
| I began layering the colors on. |

I think it might be time for another cupcake painting. As usual, I bought a few today when I was in Newburyport. While I was visiting I found out that Eat Cake Bakery is closing at the end of this week. :(
I wish all the best to Hillary and the ladies that work there. You will be missed.
