gimme gimme gimme

Another artshare arrived today....lovely pieces of art based on one of my own photos. I am stunned. Thank you to Arlee. It hardly seems fair to me that I simply went out with my camera and clicked some buttons. I may have to print another leaf or two soon, after all the holiday madness is over. What is so amazing, is that this piece is exactly the colours Michael and I have finally decided will be our living room colours...you know, we don't have the same tastes in most decorating so it takes us forever to decide anything(the kitchen colours were a decision 9 months in the making...for real) ...and just when we figure it out, I open this package. Meant to be a part of our landscape. Thank you, thank you, thank you. As we had just decided on colours, I finally bought a couch(so we can dump the horrible hand-me-hand-me-hand-me down) with some of my money from painting Em's place. It was a triumphant investment because new furniture is such a luxury. Only one problem. It was like buying a camouflage suit for Michael. I can't find him anywhere....can you?
Oooh....what's that?
Sweetest Eem-er gives away the secret. There he is...

I am going to send you some art after the holiday madness. I think that I will commision J to do some work for you. Honestly, everyone in the house loves your photo. Amazing. YOu appeal to my punk rock/goth girl 15 year old, and my preppy 12 year old. You rock.
Yay on the new couch. Was Michael there somewhere?
Nice art work from Arlee, too.

Great couch and it looks as though Michael and Emma are giving it a good test run...

Wow, it's like Dagwood and Charlie Brown at the same time...

Wow! Very fun art. Myself, not an artist, so I appreciate when people have that skill. Also, nothing better than a nap on the couch;-)
