It's Spring at Shadymont

The birds, bunnies, and flowers have taken over here at Shadymont!  I'm in full Spring/Easter mode.  We've had April Showers all day!  3.5" they say!  Our back pasture looked like a river most of the day!  Inside though, it's Spring!  Peat pots, overflowing with Spring flowers, I've had so much fun painting and decorating the peat pots.  I'm getting some ready to sell when I have my yard sale.  Hopefully in a week or so!  Maybe, this Friday.  I'm not quite sure.  I'd like to have it for 2 days in a row, but on Saturday, there's a Sister get together for some shopping, so I think I'll do that.  Then we plan to go to the lake house next week, so I'm not sure when to schedule it.  I've gathered lots of goodies today to put in my sale.  Stuff that is just taking up space, that I do not use.  So hopefully it will sell. I've even included some of my art work, to see what kind...

An Unexpected Gift

It's hard to get a photo without the glare considering where this picture is hanging.  I've placed it above a side table in the dining room.  It is a gift from my step-son.  He came to spend the night on Christmas, and brought this for me.  It is signed and numbered by the author, 160/500.  The name of the print is "A Natural Pair", and is of a pair of quail.  The artist is Steven Hein, 1987.  The outer mat shows up blue in the photo, but is actually a green color. Notice the old wire fence in the painting.  I think this is such a lovely painting. I couldn't have chosen art work that would blend in better with my accessories.  So I'm happy to have this lovely art to add to my decor. The photo below shows up better. It's always nice to be surprised, and I really like my new artwork! Joining these parties: Wow Us Wednesday What's It Wednesday
