I received the day before Thanksgiving the Amazing Book of LAPIN (which I won), that illustrator I had told you about in a previous post..... this is his link ->

First,
 it was wrapped in such a cool way.
Second,
 it has fabulous illustrations in it ( i include one of my favorite pages)
and Third
the little paper they took out of the hat with my name on it was included on the last page for me with a drawing of that event.
How cool is that !!

BUT I'm not finished
I saved the best for last.

Here is SHEILA TAJIMA !
She came to visit her brother who lives in my city, San Diego.....  !
We had a french pastry together.
How awesome is that !
Here are the pics.
Of course I had to introduce her to Grace !

What a fabulous day it was !

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL

A NEW DAY !

8  x  10   Acrylic

This is for Camille' moleskin- her theme is Peace or anything we wanted.

So I wanted something that brings me the "hope of peace" and a sunrise is what did it for me.

For with each new day is a fresh start.

I worked on those clouds a while, you would think they're easy but I had a dickens of a time with them.

As surely as the sun rises, he will appear. Hosea 6:3
