I chose her third Wish, "Summer Evening" by Edward Hopper (best known for his corner diner painting, "Nighthawks"). I was intrigued at painting again. I'm done A LOT of drawing :D So, I expanded the view of the original painting:


"Summer Evening"


"Nighttime Fireflies"



Notes (cont.): It's been quite awhile since I painted with acrylics. I painted a few protraits in watercolor (like this of Sirius), but I'm good at acrylics, just rusty. I wish I had a HUGE-ASS canvas and oil paints like Hopper did. Instead, this is painted on a 9x12 piece of paper. It's still good though!


Thanks to the mods, the gift maybe small, but you hold a big place in my heart.
