I painted black acrylic over all the stretched canvas and then took a straight pallet knife that I had never used before and applied all the white with it. The bottom photo I took with my iPhone and top with my camera. I hope you enjoy!

Very festive and creative! Well done Sharon!Amy Yampanis 13 Dec 2012
this is marvelous. I LOVE the black and white- you would think it would feel stark, but it doesn't. Wonderful textures too. It also actually reminds me of something we used to do as kids- one of my art teachers had us melt shavings of crayon and then on top of that she put some sort of black layer (cannot remember what she used)- and then we scratched away the black in designs- letting the colors underneath show and add to the drawing.lillianhibiscus 12 Dec 2012

YOU ARE SO CREATIVE, SHARON. NICE WORK.Donald Schrier 08 Dec 2012
Seems like the majority of the people surmise you scratched this painting but it looks like you applied the paint with the edge of the knife which is a lot harder and more skill is required. I like this as it is original and seasonal.Anneke Hut 08 Dec 2012
It looks like an etching, I like it a lot, Sharon.Geoff Cooper 08 Dec 2012
