Little Bird Cages

Sometimes I buy stuff that I really shouldn't.  Yep.  I see it at a yard sale or thrift store and think to myself, "maybe I could paint on that?"  These wooden panels were such an example of my binge buying.  I found them at a yard sale for a steal but they sat....sat....sat....perhaps even got moved to the storage unit sat...until recently I looked at them and it hit me.  They looked like a BIRD CAGE!  And voila!  A painting series began.  See:


This one is the odd man out...but I just had to use this sketch from my sketchbook.  And the words, well they mean a lot to me these days.


I hope you start your Valentine Week off with loads of JOY and LOVE......the Horne house sure is!
