Reminds me of the children's book Brooks and I just read: Matthew's Dream; in which Matthew the mouse grows up to become a wonderful artist-- his largest and best picture gets placed in the museum that inspired him as a child, and when asked the title, he exclaims: "My dream!" <br /><br /><br />Nice book. You should read it to your beautiful grandchildren, if you haven't already.<br />xoxoxo amesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013530919398545410.post-88942273492511883852010-11-08T10:45:30.902-08:002010-11-08T10:45:30.902-08:00M.

I thought, once you applied the paint you were committed to that color! So I'm learning a little, second hand. And your finished product is delightful - whimsical and cheerful. Keep up the good work! Our best to all of you -- Love, PatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013530919398545410.post-21433835619025166382010-11-08T06:13:14.026-08:002010-11-08T06:13:14.026-08:00Aunt Sue,

It would be hard to convince someone that a fun whimsical painting was not your original intent.

It's wonderful!! The colors are so vibrant and the neat shapes you've put into the forground certainly catch my eye, but the placement and colors you've used draw my eye right to the center each time I look at it. And then I bounce around the whole piece again. It's like eye candy. I LOVE it!!! You're amazing :)<br />Love, Janny<br /><br />---- MSGodfreyArt wrote:Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013530919398545410.post-1781210419926153862010-11-06T20:59:46.275-07:002010-11-06T20:59:46.275-07:00Wow--Margaret!

I love the pattern and color you added---while I agree that the house could have been more "skewed" I still think it's a terrific save. What a great way to revamp an old painting--you had nothing left to lose and you really went for it! Bravo!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03174632121131310164noreply@blogger.com
