A Painting idea Comes to Life

I had been wanting to try this idea for a bit.  The Photo editor I have been using has what is called a Pencil sketch. (I still have Picasa on my desktop, but it is no longer supported by Google.)  It will edit the photo to look like a drawing.  I am sure Pic-monkey or others have the same option.

This is the photo I started out with.  

This is what it looks like using the Pencil Sketch enhancer.

Using acrylic paints, I filled in the way I wanted it to look.  I didn't want all of the detail that was in the picture.

That is the fun part. Making this picture look totally different with color was a lot of fun.

It puts a pretty pop of fall color on this wall.  The glass is over the picture so it is just a little more vibrant.  

Thanks for looking and maybe this might give an idea how to make a unique painting for your own home.
