Here's a lovely image for Valentine's Day. I got it from The Graphics Fairy at http://www.graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/. You can download all kinds of wonderful graphics from her site for free. I think I'll be visiting her regularly.

I finally finished painting the pictures/alphabet letters I've been working on for the last two months. They are for my daughter and son-in-law's soon-to-be-adopted baby. She asked me if I would paint a large picture for one wall of the nursery. Through a friend I got the idea to do these alphabet letters. She had a set of them that she got for her grandchildren. They were published by Houghton Mifflin, and I have to confess - I copied them! I bought a couple tablets of primed 9x12 canvas, some tube acrylics and got to work. I just thought it would be so eye-catching to plaster them all over the wall in staggered sets on little shelves (think Martha Stewart here).

This was taken at Christmas, 2009, with their new puppy they got from a rescue site. He came from Mexico and was treated in this country for an unattended broken leg and then placed for adoption. He's a sweetie. They lost their Australian Shepherd/American husky dog, Siska, a year ago July (2007) to cancer, and it took Temple awhile to be ready to get another pooch.
