And just to break the rules a bit...I think everyone of you who visit here deserve this award...I award you the Arte y pico award also...because each and everyone of you inspire me!!! Thank you! Enjoy!
I have actually been able to get a bit of art done even though between my hubby and I we cannot figure out what is wrong with my color laser printer...everytime we switch it to print in color it switches back to grayscale all on it's own. Now there's a head scratcher for you lol...I've never had any problems with this printer in the year that I've had it! It was always the running out of toner issue! I am at wits end with it!
I still don't like my new internet provider...it's pretty much touch and go and doesn't like to open pages when doing searches and plus our home phone is hooked up to this computer..so if the internet isn't cooperating the phone doesn't want to either. I'm sure you know what I could say about that lol. Sooooooo I got a Tracfone....again...touch and go with that. Arrrrrrrgh! Does anything work!? LOL I am this close to pulling all my hair out LOL
Anywho....this new piece is titled "Somewhere" The quote reads, "For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it...for every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it...for every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it."~Ivan Panin I am always blessed with beautiful inspirational quotes that RobenMarie has to share on her blog! Thank you Roben for always inspiring me with such lovely quotes!! xo
I will be listing this piece and more this weekend in my Etsy shop! If you go now you might be able to catch some of my latest pieces I created just before my move here to Tennessee!
I will try to post more soon if my computer allows me to! hee hee
Much love and blessings!

It was me that asked about the special commission, but due to life kicking my arse, I was unable to respond...Hold on and as soon as I can breathe, we can connect!

Long time, no talk lady! Seems things are going well, save for a couple possessed computer appliances.
Love the page! Your work always astounds me. Hugs!

Hi Nancy! I had absolutely NO idea you'd honored me with this award! I am thrilled and humbled, and I am SO sorry I missed this somehow! Much, much too kind of you... I guess we really have no idea how we might touch others' lives, without even being aware of it. As to the post above with the WIP, and the quote you wrote... prior to seeing this award, I was going to leave a comment to tell you I think it's really quite wonderful just the way it is. (And I don't give out compliments without sincerity). I think it is quite charming, and I'm not sure what would possibly improve it. Perhaps you should leave it for a couple weeks and then take a new, fresh look at it. I think you'll see it differently after taking a break from it. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for the kind words and award. It means the world to me, and the award comes (today, for me), on a morning when I really need it. All my best! K.
