More painting-goodness for you...
Greta and the Gramaphone, Acrylic on wood plaque 11"x14"x1"
I've been painting a bit and sketching a fair bit and watching movies until my DVD player went on strike. The sketches are for a fun gocco project I've got in the works, and I should be sharing about soon!
Today I get to bake a cake in the shape of a giant cupcake, because tomorrow it is Somebody's birthday! Hooray!
I've been wanting an excuse to use this pan for forever. I will try very hard to remember to take some photos of the finished giganto-cupcake.
Happy Thursday, sweet peas!

I just love your prints. I just found out that we're expecting a baby girl, so I bought four prints from you to celebrate my girl!!

Wow! - Greta is breathtaking! She is really pretty. Great job. Love her eyes and the color of the background.

Oh, Miss Em, I am afraid I must tag you. Diane tagged me and after reading my deadly dull 7 random facts, I felt it was my duty to tag some that were more interesting.
come see my blog for details.
If you wish not to participate, I do understand.

This is a really beautiful piece. I wish I could afford to buy one of each on your Etsy!!!
