Handmade Store: Beach Treasures

My inspiration came from spending the summer at our trailer in Port Franks Ontario. We spend long days at the beach laying in the sun, going boating and watching the sunsets. I had never really painted before in my life other than in grade school but one day I was in the craft section at Walmart and I noticed the paints. My first thought was how much I would love to paint a sunset from the trailer. I bought the paints and a canvas and started painting. One weekend I was at the beach and thought it would be really cool to do a painting on driftwood. The thought behind it was that I would get to take a piece of the beach home with me as well as the beautiful scenery. I started painting driftwood in my free time and the rest is history :)
