Last May, I purchased a special cup, for a dear friend of mine, as a birthday gift.
I was a cool “project cup” I bought at Starbucks. The cup comes apart so that you can design the insert.
This past New Year’s I made a resolution to finish one project a month.
The first project took me two months to complete. It took me way too long to finish, as my time painting usually ends up at the very bottom of the “To Do” list that never gets completed.
I finally finished it and it has been delivered to its intended owner.
My design was inspired by an Instagram post from @Coastal_Living.
The original photograph is by KickaWitte/Getty Images of Kauai, Hawaii.
I had to make two separate attempts of this painting as my beloved ZuZu decided to use the first painting as a scratch pad while it was drying overnight.
I liked the second attempt better in the long run any way.

Inserted into the cup, the completed project looks like this:
