There's a Galaxy in my Room!

If your don't recognize that nice spiral galaxy right there, that is M31 (a.k.a. The Andromeda Galaxy).  Painting is definitely not my area of expertise, but I don't let that stop me from mixing up some colors and having a try!  It shouldn't stop anyone from trying something they've never done before or aren't that skilled at.  If you enjoy it or think you might, then DO IT, because it's worth the fun! :D 

So, there are obvious flaws with this painting.  One that really annoys me is that M110 (the galaxy below M31) just seems a bit off.  I feel like it needs to be nudged a little to the right.  And of course, there are other things here and there I wished I could have executed a bit better.  Oh, well.  Maybe I'll improve with more practice.  I have been painting a lot more lately.  I've been pretty stressed out, and it really helps me relax and take my mind off of my worries.  And sometimes, it takes me to other galaxies. ;)

I love how I can incorporate two things that I love into one!  It makes it TWO times more enjoyable!  Ha!  I wonder if there's a way I could incorporate exercise with something fun that I love to do... I'll have to work on that one.

Well, I guess that's it for now.  If anyone happens to stumble upon this post, what are two things you love that you like to combine and how do you go about it?  Am I right about it being twice as fun?

TTYL!
