GREEN

D asked, "Why's the water green?" Because it's my painting!

PIRATE'S DAY OFF

What's an old salt to do with a day off at sea?
Set anchor, me buckos, and search for booty.

Oh just one sip of rum...ok two, maybe three.
Well, shiver me timbers she's smilin' at me.

What clever distractions from me old treasure quest.
I'll just sit for a spell, get me dungbie some rest!
(c.frizz)

I swapped this for my super-squirrel from Futuregirl.
I made her a matching stamp too.

okay, you are getting me salivating for our little swap--the summer swap?

I've already told you, Frizz, how wonderful this painting is ... but I want everyone else to know that the photos just don't do it justice.

Every tiny brush stroke is perfect. Even the scales on the smallest mer-fox (bottom right of the bottom right image) are individually painted with what must have been a one bristle brush. The parrot and the jug are both a deep eggplant purple that almost glows against the rich greens.

I love that there is an accompanying poem that helps tell the story. It's an amazing piece of art, Frizz, and I'm so happy to give it a good home. :)
