MyShadowProductions #25 - Custom Paint By Number Activity

Welcome the NEW year 2021 from MyShadow in ski pants, grateful for health to ski on Christmas Day at Vail!

I decided to order a Custom Paint By Number kit to help take advantage of time during the coming winter months. (Note: I didn’t procrastinate as long as I thought I would:)) Also, ordered a customized kit for each granddaughter for a Christmas gift, I hope their mothers will still talk to me after their young artists’ adventures :)

Last year at this time I was in Mexico for a two week trip, totally unaware of what 2020 had in store!!

This is the photo I sent for my kit:

Not too happy with the colors and details of the top portion of the painting??? But, overall it captures many of the fine details in the photo :)

This is the original photo again:

Update: Made a little change to the painting, at the top, matches original photo a little better??
