One more Peace with SW colors, sometimes this happens by accident, sometimes I plan to work with same colors for a few days. I think these four look good together.

Request for Peace

12-15-11
My friend Ann (who loves "picking").... found a large framed picture at a garage sale with summer for $1.00.... she liked it, not for the picture (an animal print).... but for the frame, and the mat was nice too. So she asked me to create a large Peace which could be used with the mat and frame. Sure I said!
This is how the project turned out- Yellow, Gold, Cream, & Brown (which didn't show up very well in these photos.





















I say it looks very sweet in my Dining Room!  But this will go to Ann as her Christmas gift. 
I framed it last night and took it over to Westminster to hang in the show for a few weeks.
In January, after Ann takes down her Christmas decorations, I hope she will find a special wall  to hang this special request Peace!

Heartwarming Peace for my Husband!

12-7-11
The colder weather has had me working in blues, but here trying to warm up with some added red hearts. Just like the love that was added to my life 20 years ago when Greg and I got engaged on this special date! A year prior, on 12-7-90, we had our first introduction and went to lunch together.

PEACE HUG for my "IT" guys

12-2-11
A special thank-you PEACE HUG for my two IT guys at work. Not only did they work nicely with me during my latest visit to the central office, but they also gave me a stack of used CD's. There must be 3 months worth here!
