Default Finished Sunflower
Hey guys! Here is my finished product. Now keep in mind this was equivalent to about 3 hours labor total. I kind of rushed it. It was meant to just be practice but I decided to go ahead and make it look like a finished project.
Just added a walnut frame, picture hook on back and clear laquer aerosol. I really watered down the colors and I may go back over the green with a little darker color of green. This green is kind of bright. I will probably just hang on the wall in the storage closet so they can find it after I am gone for the smithsonian museum. Haaaaaaaa!!!!
