PPF Turns 4!

"EVA and Kristin"  by, Kristin Dudish
(watercolor and graphite on 140lb. watercolor paper)

Hi! Welcome to Paint Party Friday's 4th Birthday/Anniversay/Blogoversary Party! And to PPF's Year 5, Week 1 Check-In. We've put our party hats back on, and we are so excited to have you here to celebrate 4 paint-filled years!  This blog has grown beyond our expectations and we couldn't be happier...  Great friends, great artwork, and great encouragement... Time really does fly when you're having fun!


To celebrate another amazing year, we have decided to give away a $40 ($10 for each year!) Dick Blick E-Gift Card.  We will use the random.org number generator to choose a winner from this week's Paint Party Friday participants (we will announce the winner next week)... Good Luck, friends!

Thank you so much to everyone for painting, playing and partying with us!!

EVA and Kristin

As always, please make sure to use your post URL address NOT your blog home page URL address as there are many late visitors who get confused as to which post is for PPF when they arrive (after Friday) at your website. If you are unfamiliar with Mr. Linky, an explanation of how this tool works can be found on Week 1 and Week 2 posts. Thanks again for making this such a wonderfully supportive community (and good luck in the giveaway)!

    Happy Birthday! Since I found PPF I do a blog post once a week, regularly, and that is so helpful! I love challenges and schedules, LOL. Who doesn't need more art supplies, right? Blicks is one of my favorite online stores. Fun!
