Wow. Again... Your stuff just knocks my little cotton socks off. I guess I've missed quite a few posts and honestly, I can't tell you my favorite piece of art you've done. I love it all. Incorporating the masters is fabulous! I love the way they turned out. I'm also terribly partial to the "Got Milk" kitty and the "oddly familiar". Great, great stuff. You just keep crankin' 'em out - okay?! LOVE IT ALL - Kathy

What a feast for the eyes! Lovely, lovely work. (Waterhouse is my favorite artist, I think). Love your would-be postcards! Thanks for bringing your talent to our challenge this week.

you did an amazing re-creating job here starting with the known piece of work and moving on into and beyond creativity.
