It's time for mistletoe and holly...daily oil painting



Oh by gosh, by golly....it's time for mistletoe and holly.....I can't help singing this song when I look at this. I bought some holly this weekend. It really is so gorgeous, which is very contradictory to it's prickly leaves. I was painting this and feeling a little underwhelmed with ihow it was turning out, so I decided to try my pallette knife. Something I haven't really tried much for painting, as it feels so awkward. But I ended up having such fun and I really like how it turned out. It was very freeing! Everyone should try it.
