This is for a great cause!!!




Most of you know Pam Carriker who is not only an awesome artist, but a teacher of awesome classes, and wonderful mom and wife...she has great compassion for those suffering with breast cancer as it's hit close to home. A family member has been suffering with it so she's doing something to make a difference. You can go to her ETSY shop via http://www.thebagladysart.etsy.com/
and find this beautiful print of a painting she did so she could not only give us a beautiful creation by her which in of it's self is a real treat, but the procedes of the sales are going to Breast Cancer Recearch...how awesome it that??? You know I think I'm going to do one as well (not nearly as gorgeous as Pam's, but I feel we all could do our part to help find a cure for this horrific disease!!! Will post mine in a couple days!!!
Don't for get to get yours!!!!

Lookie what we have!!!




This is my hubby with all three pugs. Wrinkles is laying on the other side of the bed and little Sadie (black) is laying near Dewey! Our new guy, Napolian is standing. Napolian (I call Polo for short) is a very sweet friendly guy who loves attention. We are happy to say he and Wrinkles chase each other all over the house and yard which I'm sure will help Wrinkles lose some weight!!! How we got this gorgeous pug for free is a rather sad story for he was destine for the pound. A husband and wife decided to divorce, husband was sent back to Iraq leaving his beloved pug, Napolian behind. Wife didn't really like this little dog for she had her own BIG dog...so she decided since the were getting a divorce she's just get ride of him. Now mind ya they had this little guy for 5 yrs. Our SIL works with the wife so told us about the dog...we went over to see him and took him home that very night. We talked it over and decided even tho we've already bonded with Polo and love him we will give him back to his owner if he wants him back when he comes back from the war. It's only right that he should have him don't y0u think?? I know it will be hard when and if the time comes, but we know how we would feel if it were us over there...no, he doesn't even know she got rid of him!!! Sad isn't it???
We will take care of him and enjoy what time we do have!!!
Blessings,
Bevie

What an awesome day!!!
















Today is much like yesterday, cool, low humitity, breezy and a glimpse of days to come! I am so thankful for being in an area where you can see all the seasons~ I can sit out on the deck and create paintings with all God's glory around me...the trees starting to fall and the sun shining down on me unlike any other light!!! Oh and the birds just singing their hearts out as I work...my what joy this brings to my soul!!! As I take in all that beauty as my lungs take in the clear, clean and crisp air I'm reminded that I have been so totally blessed. Not with worldly things, far from it...but with the knowledge that God loves me as much as he does all of you...isn't that just the most awesome fact??? I was sitting here thinking I would like to share some of the paintings I've do lately...perhaps even some of the chunky book pages I've become so enamired with.(sp) hehehee!!! so here they are...just remember I pray that you all have a wonderful day, and if I haven't stopped by your blogs lately...I will!!

My August entry for Mide Wide Open



The second photo is the prompt picture for August's challenge, so I decided to play up this little darling swinging in a real (sure) tree using an 8x10 canvas board and using acrylic paints. It's a mixed media collage with some whimsy!!!
This was really fun and I suggest if you haven't been to check out Mind Wide Open before you should...you may just decide you'd love to join in!!!
Oh, there's a little block that says "Mind Wide Open" just click on it and it will take you there! Just let GAIL (who comes up with all these awesome challenges) you want to join in!!!!
Blessings
God loves you and so do I!
