I started painting on wood in September 2021 when I found some pieces of wood leftover from a book shelf my husband made from up-cycled old barn wood.  I had so much fun that I have continued to paint these little gems.  Most are on old barn wood I get locally, but some are on live edge wood I buy from a neighbor who mills his own wood.  For the most part, I try to incorporate the natural wood into the painting, but not always.
