This Is The Best Way To Do Pink Plus a Little DIY Video

Hello, All!

I hope everyone is getting to enjoy this lovely Spring weather. I've been painting like a wind storm and am excited to share several new things with you.

First, I found this app called, Hyperlapse, and used it while I 
painted this antique wardrobe. 


I've been looking for a good way to add little clips like this on 



my Facebook page. There are so many days I wish I could move this fast. 

Have a look at the finished piece!






I used four colors of chalk / clay paint from Debi's DIY Paint to create 
this soft buttery shade of coral pink.  The colors are Carnival Red, 
Kissing Booth, Cowboy Coral and Queen Bee. Oh, and I also
 used a thin layer of their white wax...that's the best part.


Lastly, here are some of my newest paintings.  All of these are available as of today, on my website, The Turquoise Iris.








I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.


But I look up high to see only the light,
And never look down to see my shadow.
This is wisdom which man must learn.

~ Song of the Flower XXIII by Khalil Gibran

Have a good one, my friends.
