Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.

Thank you all for the kind and loving support you expressed over the Somerset article. You all are just the best! Your encouragement keeps my creativity going. As much I as I love to be in the studio making art I equally love collecting the art of other artists. Boy, talk about a collection enhancement, I received a wonderful surprise just in time for Christmas, the give away prize I won from KC Willis of Lipstick Ranch.I spent a couple of weeks looking at art on her website trying to pick something and could not decide. She suggested I tell her the pieces I liked and she would create something from that. I fully expected a piece of art from her wonderful $200.00 shopping spree in her gallery. I was shocked and awed by her generosity of not one, not two, but three pieces of her art!
The wonderful part is that I made no suggestions of specific styles or colors, only pieces that I liked, and when they arrived it was if they were custom made for areas of my home. You can't really get the depth and gorgeousness of the pieces in a photo but I tried to show them off peppered throughout this post.
I used one piece, a beautiful angel, with my Christmas decor. How did KC know that I have a deep dark eggplant accent color in my living room?



I have this beautiful floral design hanging in the studio so I can enjoy it for now but it will eventually move to my bedroom. The colors are perfect!



The third piece I gave away as a gift to my best friend and she was beyond thrilled. It is perfect in her family room.


KC, I can't thank you enough for your generosity! The beauty of your work enhances not only my home but nurtures and inspires my artistic spirit, that is Christmas KC style!We are covered up in a blanket of new fallen snow this morning, a cozy kind of day to head to the studio to play. I hope your day is a cozy enjoyable one too!
