It's finished....so excited!

"Life in your years"
©Teresa Kogut
acrylic on canvas 30" x 15"

"Life in your years" (close up)

I love how this painting turned out! There are so many layers of color it really adds depth. Click on the pictures to enlarge them so you can see the detail. The quote is an Abraham Lincoln quote "In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years".

and now............below is my next endeavor. I layered stretched canvas with papers for yet another dimension then loosely painted black gesso over the papers. Can't wait to get painting on this one....

  2. I love the angels and the colors you used.
    That would be beautiful in a punch or hooked, or a quilt, lol.
    I was thinking, a lot of your designs would make nice wool applique pieces.
