DIY Canvas Art Knock Off

Many moons ago (5 years to be accurate) I wanted to make my daughter's nursery elegant and girly and I had all the right stuff to do so, except the art work. Enter...knock off DIY canvas art!!

Now I don't consider myself an artist by any means...I'm not even good, but I'm capable, so I searched for the right art to fit her room decor and everything I fell in love with was so expensive!! So what's the next best thing to pricey artwork? A handmade knock off!!

I found five pieces that I adored, so I rolled up my sleeves, broke out the paints and got down and dirty! Sadly, only two of the five made it to completion and into her room! I managed to finish a third, while two still sit waiting for my finishing touches!!

Here is the uber-pricey, professional painting Boho Bird by Reesa:

And now, for my less than stellar knock off:

And the side-by-side:

Now here is where I will ask for your "polite" (I'll cry if it's too harsh lol) criticism! Be honest...would you hang the knock off in your home?
