After work today I went to get my hair cut. I asked Tiffany my hairdresser what her favorite colors are. It turns out she has a lot of fav colors. But, I could tell that she really likes vintage colors. So do I! We popped on pinterest and this is one of the color ideas we found.
Pinterest Vintage Color Idea
I have a lot of great boards on pinterest. One of them is titled Anne’s September 2015 Thirty paintings in 30 days. Also, check out my Color board.
As soon as I got home I got right to work on todays painting. It changed a lot!! I wish I took more pictures so you could see just how much it changed.
Picking out the hand painted papers
This is really the second layer as I ended up covering much of the 1st layer. I decided NOT to use the vintage playing card as I have on the other paintings. Instead, I would wait until the last layer and use my vintage #9 stamp. It is really small but I like it:) I usually use ink with the stamps but for todays painting I decided to use raw umber acrylic paint.

This is my color wheel I said I would post using the pastel frame on my photoshp express app.Just for fun!

It took me longer then an hour today to complete this picture but I think it turned out pretty good. I decided to add the word vintage from an old dictionary. After I ripped its edges I “stained” it with some raw umber acrylic paint.
