I am very fond of the colors in this one.  I am pretty sure these were the colors of my Grandparent's bedroom when I was a little girl in the 70's.  And I wouldn't doubt that the bedroom was decorated way before I came around.  I still remember how important a phone call could be.  Now with all the computers and endless cell phones does it still feel the same? This painting is up on Etsy.

I love the colors...ahhhh the rotary phone...Don and I were still using a rotary phone in the 80s, somewhere in there push button phones came along and then cordless and cell phones...WOW! Love the painting and the story!

I used to hide out in the back bedroom talking way past my Mom's designated end time....making her come in and force me to say goodbye....I loved turning the wheel of those old rotary phones....and how when you moved them, you'd hear the bells ring a bit when you set it down....

The colors in this are perfect! That kitty's face looks so dissinterested...haha!
