HE Holds the Key

I am getting ready for my show at the ReddiArts Gallery here in Jacksonville, and yesterday they called and rescheduled my time to May and June rather than March and April. This gives me a little more time---whew!

This girl is on a 12 x 12 x 1/12 cradled wood board. You can find them at Hobby Lobby. She is collaged with paper squares underneath then painted with acrylic, stamps, Caran d 'ache and punchanella. He holds the key to her heart....so...who is HE? Well, HE holds the key to my heart too.

    Martha, We're at Milliande's site together. Just wanted to pop in and visit your blog and I could just sit for hours and admire your art. That calligraphy chair is amazing! You should call Guiness Book of World Records - you might be the first to have reupholstered a stuffed chair with calligraphy! xoxo

    Your love for Him shines through all you do. I love this piece. Her face is so happy and serene. I feel peaceful and at ease looking at this one. Your artwork can do that for me. Or is it His influence?!
