Description A friend plopped a flat rock in my hand the other day and asked me to paint it. I really hadn't done any rock painting before but I figured 'why not'. I painted a bird because she hand her husband gave a garden and like to watch the birds. I'm pretty happy with how it came out.

That's gorgeous! He has a cute little face. And this was your first time painting a rock? You did an excellent job then!

Aw.  Thank you so much!  
That I can remember, yes.  My friend likes birds.  She has them in her garden and likes to watch them.  So I figured it was a good subject.

Very pretty. I bet you could sell these without much trouble. I know one friend who gets little rocks and paints them as caterpillars and such.

Really? You think so? Maybe I will give it a shot. Didn't actually take too long.

It might be useful. If you could get good at it, maybe painting rocks and coating them with something so they're waterproof would work too.

I did coat this one with some heavy duty sealer.  I wasn't sure if she was going to put it outside or not...so I tried to make it durable.

It might be a good way to make some extra cash. If you did a bunch of them, I wonder if they'd let you sell them in the jewelry store.

Maybe!  He actually has a couple pieces that were sold to him, painted on semi precious stone slabs.
