    Default Painted Nursery Photos: part 1

    I painted my Grandson's nursery, but my daughter gave birth before it was finished, so it is incomplete. I had intended to flesh out my flowers, among other things, but ran out of time... the story of my life...
    I wanted his room to be full of sunshine, so I chose a yellow background. And I was trying to make the room look as though he were inside a story book. Ironically, he is obsessed with Curious George now. He just turned two. Thank you for letting me share. Sharon

    Default Pained Nursery Photos: part 2 of 2

    The quilt and curtains, etc. was part of a design called "Lamb's & Ivy". And the sweet little boy in the photo is the love of my life. Sharon

    I forgot to re-size the photo of Liam. You'll have to excuse me; I'm an amateur. [ATTACH=CONFIG]519608[/ATTACH]

    Thank you! Liam is about 4 or 5 months old in the photo. I didn't have any current photos on this computer, so I posted what was available. Yes, I love the giraffe too. I think he has personality! All the animals look happy, don't they?

    I sat for my state boards for nursing in Columbus. I used to go to the art museum, Cosi (the old one and the new one), the zoo, and Spaghetti Warehouse frequently. And my family was almost stampeded when we went to a Fourth of July Fireworks display there. It was scary! I miss the Cheesecake Factory. I'm in New Hampshire now, and the closest one is in Boston, which is maybe 45 minutes away. Sharon

    Thank you Lynnie and decky! He is a force to be reckoned with for sure. I love the Viking hat too. He has changed a lot since this photo. He was about 5 months old here and now he is 2 years old.
