Hey Blogging buddies, Thanks for visiting!
Here is my latest painting "Leaning Tower of Pisa" I've painted this piece from a photo I took nearly six years ago while in Italy. I used Jo Sonja acrylic paints and glazed over in Archival Oil paints.
Someday I hope to get back to Italy.
The Italian paper on the background is compliments of http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/

In my last post I was telling you how my 100 th post is coming up, well here it is!
So I'm having a Giveaway, actually I've decided to have a 1st and 2nd prize giveaway.
I also asked 'what would you like as a giveaway' and three bloggers responded with an answer of something fabric.
I've incorporated Fabric and Art with a Journal.
This is second prize.
The pages are 4.5 x 6 inches.
This 1st prize bag would be suitable for a make-up bag or pencil case. It's 9" X 6" in size.
It's still in the making, however I'm sure it will be finished in plenty of time to post to the winner of my giveaway.
