Everyone Is partying and I’m home painting. This is my first galaxy painting I’ve done and a quote Is being placed over it. I’m super happy with it. 😄 #happynewyear #end2015 #newyears #painting #paintnight #acrylic #paint #space #galaxy #stars #nebula #outterspace #nasa #outerlimits #abstract #canvas #instaart #instaartist #artist by sirens_calling_xoxo
