Watercolor Wednesdays: Inspired by The Perfectly Imperfect Home

Ahh, the art of imitation. You know that movie, Julie and Julia? Where Julie tries to cook her way through Julia Child's cookbook and then blogs about it? Yeah well this week I'm pulling a Julie and Julia as I attempted to practice my work by reproducing some paintings by Virginia Johnson in one of my favourite coffee table books, '<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Perfectly-Imperfect-Home-Decorate-Live/dp/0307720136" target="_blank">The Perfectly Imperfect Home</a>':<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIL2euaABHKShDNvhYFyUQhbu856AlBnknhmDtYekYRBm9Fy7PaJKPFUfG0d5V292IUvP9ZDYxVwMZtVI_WgjLlpYV-5dWkxjb4NVTLV6ZYwzkDObUBDhSJq3UhYbWikXDSr_bkCZ-iyg/s1600/015.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIL2euaABHKShDNvhYFyUQhbu856AlBnknhmDtYekYRBm9Fy7PaJKPFUfG0d5V292IUvP9ZDYxVwMZtVI_WgjLlpYV-5dWkxjb4NVTLV6ZYwzkDObUBDhSJq3UhYbWikXDSr_bkCZ-iyg/s640/015.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> ^ Left: Virginia Johnson / Right: Tiffany Leigh<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_LW2_aIg3U659tLaYmm6NFbmp_ecVx124OYKQZYPRzJacCs3FJ62hhLjXW6P_GUqbcdWBHizjT_TDvmCpb6MCKPXKwXfmtAHn4S-pJXJcv5BfRPG6SRPKraAZPn7opbCBNROANes1Jio/s1600/021.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_LW2_aIg3U659tLaYmm6NFbmp_ecVx124OYKQZYPRzJacCs3FJ62hhLjXW6P_GUqbcdWBHizjT_TDvmCpb6MCKPXKwXfmtAHn4S-pJXJcv5BfRPG6SRPKraAZPn7opbCBNROANes1Jio/s640/021.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>^ Top: Virginia Johnson / Bottom: Tiffany Leigh<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0p1U5b4KpAlLhFV6GG74qYNmtCUgYB_ZvztxugFyuFxGtlr1Cs7n2_ZmugGQ6VoOZnc2mY4GnE4e7-L_M7uiIeIVgdjSyYs376xdUqPYxFo3d_mKNy4Vr0eSQaumk8HbzZkO5Ru8w2uc/s1600/022.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0p1U5b4KpAlLhFV6GG74qYNmtCUgYB_ZvztxugFyuFxGtlr1Cs7n2_ZmugGQ6VoOZnc2mY4GnE4e7-L_M7uiIeIVgdjSyYs376xdUqPYxFo3d_mKNy4Vr0eSQaumk8HbzZkO5Ru8w2uc/s640/022.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>^ Top: Virgina Johnson / Bottom: Tiffany Leigh<br /><br />The reality is I'm nowhere as dedicated as little miss Julie, and won't be painting my way through the <i>whole</i> book, but this was a fun experiment to get back in the swing of things. <br />From now on, each Wednesday, I am going to paint my interpretation of a photo of a room!<br />Can't wait to share with y'all.
