I wanted to share a couple of pictures of my very first oil painting. It is a reproduction of one of the Irises paintings by Vincent Van Gogh. I saw the original painting at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. I also saw Van Gogh's amazing works at the Musée d'Orsay.
I tried recreating the painting from a print we had purchased at the MET. I used only a painters knife to paint the whole painting including my signature at the bottom right.
I am so inspired to do another painting....so please do not be surprised if you don't see any of my dolls for sale for sometime.
Below is a picture of Vincent Van Gogh's original painting of the Irises which is currently at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
This is my reproduction of the Irises.

Mithua, I didn't know you could paint! Oh My, you paint very well! Wow, I wish I could paint like that! I need a ton of lesson to be able to paint even one flower much less all those flowers!

I don't blame to you, if you just want to paint! If I painted like that, Thats all I would do!

Thank you Kelly and Mae for your sweet comments!
It took me about 10 days to paint it! There was no cooking, cleaning or hardly any eating during that period...LOL...
