Thanks, Amy Ruppel (Or, Meet the Owls)





A few weeks ago, I won a giveaway at Shutter Sisters for an original Amy Ruppel 5x5 inch painting (top photo.) It is super sweet and quite a delicious addition to my home. For the time being, it is residing in a bookcase with my other owls (middle two found at thrift stores, bottom one at Starbucks.) Amy was Target Stores Holiday Artist of the Year in 2007! Thank you, Amy! I love it.

Such a pretty painting. One of my "resolutions" of sorts for 2009 is to take up sketching again, something I used to do a lot of in my teen and college years. I dabbled some in painting too and the picture you won inspires me.

I by-passed the owls and spent time looking at what's on your bookshelves. Books... I love books.
