Custom Painted Letters
Sometimes I hop on my page and take a look at my albums and blow my own mind with how many of something I've actually painted over the years. The letters are definitely one of those things. This isn't even all of them.

Started following some Artist Trading Card groups over the last few weeks. Got a bit inspired. Something little I can work on anywhere. Reminds me of when the kids were younger and I'd be sketching bookmarks in the car while the girls were in dance class. 🖤

My previous pair of canvas runners are shot. And that makes my heart sad, because I really, really loved them. They were yellow Blowfish slip ons that were super comfortable, and I wore them when I learned to tattoo, and they had a quote painted on them I love so much that I got it tattooed on me a few months back. Working on a new pair now. Not completely in love yet, but they also aren't done.
