Take a word! childhood

I adore ANYTHING created by Norman Rockwell! I used to look forward to each issue of "The Saturday Evening Post" to see what he had painted! I loved making up stories about his cover art.

I did nothing to this, just thought it fit nicely with childhood! I remember the christmas I noticed that Santa's signature on the letters I would leave for him(along with the cookies), looked suspiciously like my FATHER'S hand writing!!!!!!!!!!!

Wishing you all the innocence and joy of childhood!!!

3 Muses/ flowers

I originally created this for the peace challenge.

I decided it would fit this theme nicely.

I took a peace sign from the internet and painted a wreath of flowers using photoshop brushes.

I think it is my best original creation.

I even put it in my shop at "zazzle" on canvas grocery totes!
