The challenge is finding rocks with an interesting shape and pulling an image out of it.
These two rocks I collected today while we were fishing at the lake, I saw a bird shape in the rock in the back and a flounder in the one in front.
After I clean and dry the rocks I apply a couple layers of acrylic paint mixed with medium to give the rocks a good base coat.
This is what I've done so far, I'm still getting a feel for all the possibilities you can do with rocks.
These I will start listing in my Etsy shop.
The last few weeks I rearranged my selling venues.
I have a new website for my original paintings http://www.patrick-odriscoll.com
My Etsy shop will have aceo's, and small 5x7 original paintings along with the painted rocks.

These are so fun and have a sense of whimsy and sculpture as well as painting. I look forward to checking out your new venues.
This must be fun Pat, they look nice and shiny , and finding the right stone must be really fun too. I didn't get if you paint totally with acrylics or only as a base ?
Very beautiful art work !!!
Have a happy weekend and creative month !!!
