First Vacation Art Project

I don't paint very often so keep your opinions to yourself.
I used an old canvas from a failed painting.
I painted two coats of black to completely cover the canvas. And used my hair dryer to speed up the drying process.
I made a stencil from typing paper. I lay extra sheets of typing paper around it to protect the canvas.
Then I started slinging paint. I started with purple. I used two shades of red. Then added a little more purple. When I pulled up the typing paper, I decided the heart wasn't defined enough.
I added loose lines with a silver marker. I initialed it, dated it, and now I'm letting the paint completely air dry. My hair dryer was pushing globs of paint around.
