I want art to make you happy. I took that idea somewhat literally and there is something positive written on each small canvas. When someone takes one of the paintings home, I ask them to write something on the next canvas. That way, it makes a nice linking chain of good energy. I use a lot of bright colors, so not only are they literally a bright spot in your house but they also have good thoughts floating around them. I'll be posting the before and after of each one very soon! I had them at Art in the Park Boise this past weekend and I'll have them at Thousand Springs Art Festival coming up later this month. I've put up a few of the photos of my favorites from the new batch of happy thoughts that I'll start working on now.
