Busy Busy Busy!

I can't believe it's Wednesday already!! This week is about over and what have I been doing?? Well, it's quite hot here today - and my little V was pretty bored - so I bribed him with the Spray Park. First we'll do the scrapbook store AND then we'll go spray and THEN we'll get a cold treat. It was a nice afternoon, hot but nice. I needed to see how my yard sale stuff did there - 150 bucks.....credit in the store. LOVE that! Can't wait for the next one. Well, I decided to start writing another book proposal so I've been busy getting a couple of projects done to accompany the bit of writing that I'll need to do to accompany my package to my publisher/editor. We're over the stress of the house stuff, Big V most likely has a job teaching survival stuff and well, I gotta do something......(BTW...got some good news that Art from the Heart was the top pick for two MAJOR bookstores, yahoo that was fabulous news to hear!) anyway, these two images are SNEAKIES of my proposal images.
Little V and I went junking on Saturday afternoon - that was fun. It amazes me how much fun that kid has at a flea market or antique store. He loves old stuff just like his parents do. I found some cool pictures and a neato tray, a nice old Geography book and I got something else but I can't remember what it was..... The lady I got the tray from - goofed though...she forgot to take her yard sale tags off - she paid 2.00 for it and was asking $20.00....I ended up paying 6.00 - that made me happy. I also discovered today that you can cut tintypes nicely with a pair of regular scissors. That makes me happy. Anywho, I see my style changing again. It seems like every time I go through a major life change and step away from art when I come back to it my way of doing things have changed. Well, nighty night.
