Today's challenge is to paint a red mug of cocoa with a sugar cookie.
I sketched the scene I wanted to paint and then sat considering if I wanted to paint the mug a color other than RED. Red paint (at least the ones I have) are really difficult to blend out if they bleed outside the lines (mine always leave a nasty smudge that's impossible to get rid of . . ) for that reason I did do red because I need the practice.
Once my scene was painted and dry, I added a stamped sentiment and framed with gold mirror board.

Oh, I can even see the cocoa under the foam...very good. Your red paint behaved today and your paint looks very good. The holly is pretty on both sides and love the foam and star cookie. Wonderful sentiment to make it a Christmas card. I meant for mine just to be winter but may save it for Christmas.

This looks amazing I am thinking since its your own sketch if you wiggled your hand you could you know just move the line over a tad if there was some paint jumping ship. This looks amazing Linda.

Amazing how all the entries to the challenge have their own personalities. This is FANTASTIC! Your shape and details are wonderful. I like how you added the hot chocolate around the rim of the mug. Clever how you stamped the sentiment. Super job!!!!
