Angel 1


Angel #1, difficulty = 2 (out of 3)
It's near that special time of the year - Christmas time! And what better time is there than the holidays to paint this beautiful angel. I started on a black background. From there we'll mix a fun array of metallic red and green paints as well as some warm golds and browns! It's painted on our unique 8"x24" canvases and would be a great addition to any hallway or doorway. I hope to see you soon - Jared

Winter Wonderland


Winter Wonderland, Difficulty = 1 (out of 3)
It's close to the holiday season and we're ready with new holiday paintings. This fun piece starts with a light blue base on which we'll place some white clouds. Once the base coat dries, we're ready to add the black trees. The last steps are speckling with white paint and adding the text. Other words that could be added are "Noel", "Believe", and "Joy". Bring your eggnog and Christmas spirit! - Jared

Christmas Friends


Christmas Friends, Difficulty = 1.5 (out of 3)
It's getting closer to that special time of year and Corks and Canvas is preparing by adding this new painting. We had a great turnout for our snowman last year so we thought we'd give it another shot. This crafty painting only has a few major colors but the details are up to you. Yellow snow is generally a bad thing but not for this painting. We'll add warm browns to this holiday piece giving it a nice antiqued finish!

Snow Bro


Snow Bro by Jared Kelley, Difficulty = 2 (out of 3)
I decided that this Snow Dude would be a cool addition to anyone's home holiday decor. We'll use a plate to outline the round head of our snowman after we've based the canvas with black. It'll be simple, you'll see. So bring your eggnog and get to painting! (And tell Carol that you want to hear more Christmas music!!!)
