I promised my next post would be about a painting. So this is the latest painting I have finished. I painted this one on acrylic paper. I am not sure about selling it for a couple of reasons. Instead I had it professionally scanned so I could make a print. Now I KNOW I need a good scanner. I love the way it turned out. I already have an Epson scanner picked out on Amazon, I just need to fork over the money. :/ It will save me a ton of time though. I have been taking pictures all this time and that is quite a process to get a good one. Anyway....I have also been messing around with a shop on Etsy. I am still working on it in my spare time so it is not finished by far, but I did put a print of this painting up there just to see how it works. You are welcome to check it out by clicking the picture. I am still working on my banner and considering I have no real software to make a banner, it turned out OK. I should get some cool software with the scanner I picked.

Next, I want to thank Micki of The Art Hermit and Cris of Mommy's Midwest Mountain for giving me the Renee Award. This is a very special award created for a very special person, Renee.

This Renee award was created by Bella and Ces in honour of their friend Renee.
In Bella's own words "this is a brand new award and I have the pleasure and honor of spreading the seed, watching it grow. I hope it finds it's way to those who are like Renee: the acorn, a small package becoming a tall and sturdy oak, giving more acorns, becoming a tall and sturdy oaks, giving more acorns...."

I also want to thank K from Heart Wing Sisters for giving me her "You Do Inspire Me"award. K is new to my blog list and I love her blog. Check it out.

You all made my week! Thank you so much! Please Check out all of these lovely blogs if you have not already.

Now, a little something for the senses. This was sent to me by my younger niece. I thought it was timely. It is amazing how disturbing this can be. Try to remember this is not a real bunny! It is only chocolate. ;)
