Here's the finished commission of Ray's wife Janice and their cat Skippy. I really think it turned out nicely if I don't say so myself :) It's watercolor and is 9" x 12". Ray, I'll be matting it today and shipping out to the address you gave me on Monday!

Well, it's a beautiful sunny day out so I'm not gonna hang around on the computer much til tonight...I'm going to go to the frame store, art store, and maybe to Macy's to have a Lovely Lo** day :) Had a killer week at work...(that's why there was the lack in postings) and I need a change in scenery :)
I also need to get caught up reading everyone elses blogs and journals! ---So that I'll be doing tonight.
Kip and I are in the process of looking into switching our IPS provider and IPP provider...AND we will hopefully be getting off this stupid Dial Up stuff! Once we do that and everything is up and running...I'm thinking about getting a webcam ;) (not so you can see me!--gawd no)...but so you can watch me paint occationally? What do you think? You will all have to get used to the my chipped nail polish if I do this ok?
Ok all, have a great day!
Lo**
Congratulations on finishing your commish, Your watercolors are simply breathtaking you know? I'm soooo jealous of Ray and Janice!!!
It's so hot here Lo, we just got back from Quizno and between setting my glass of ice tea on the table and getting pepperoncinis, all the ice melted in my ice tea and it was warm. I hope you're having a fun Saturday!!! :)

Oh, it turned out lovely. I hope one day I can get one of your bigger pieces (after we get passed the po' folks stage)...I always feel happy when I look at your artwork. It's so beautiful!

Hey, do you spray your watercolors with fixative or anything? Curious minds wanna know.
Great job!....I especially like the bird-O-paradise. Janice and RAy outa be slap-happy to receive such a delightful charactorisation. Simply sweet and lovely.
I like the web cam idea.
