My attempt at a Pollock

in Bathroom, Crafts & DIY, Home Decor, Home Decor & Landscaping

Yes I design. I design in graphics programs because I went to school for art. Sometimes I feel like I have to “get back to my roots” with other types of fine arts, even if I don’t have the greatest confidence in those areas.

I have this “30 before 30” list with 30 hopefully realistic things I’d like to accomplish before I turn 30 in February 2012. One item on my list included “Make a painting for my house.” I decided to attempt those Jackson Pollock style paintings for a large blank space in my bathroom.

I was a dork. I took my pantone swatch book to match the colors of the shower curtain and then matched them to paint at the craft store. Making the painting was a little more tough than it seemed. How do you try to make something to look like you weren’t trying? Well in the end I just had to stop and walk away. I wasn’t too pleased with it until I came back the next day when it was dry and brought it to the bedroom. Now I’m happy with the result! Try one in your house!

It's been a while since I've done a #FridayIntrodu It's been a while since I've done a #FridayIntroductions post showcasing the creator behind this account, so here are 10 random facts about me. Do we have anything in common? 
.
🙋‍♀️ My name is Tara, and I prefer the a sound like "Taaaa-ra" not like "Tear-a".
✅️ I find the act of organizing fun!
🏝 I like vacation, but 7 days is my max (and I get antsy to be home after 5, if I'm being honest)
🎧 I'm currently addicted to rewatch podcasts with original cast like @9021omgpodcast, @howrudepodcast, @podmeetsworldshow, @officeladiespod, @dramaqueensoth, and @gildedagehbo.
📚 I made a 2023 goal to read 40 books this year, and I'm currently 1/3 of the way through book 40!
🎃 I am not team pumpkin spice.
🥒 I like cucumbers with a light sprinkle of salt, but don't like pickles. 
🍫 I'd rather have M&Ms than fancy dark chocolate.
🥸 If I were born a boy, my name would've been Timothy. 
🏅I threw javelin in college.
