Art: Made for Me

By in Art!, making stuff is good, we have fun

I have been blessed, over the years, to be friends with artists who like me enough to make beautiful paintings for me. It’s different than going to an art gallery and just buying something you like, it’s more personal than that. And so, a history: 1. Tony Holiday made this for me back when his […]

Cold Weather Garb

By in love, we have fun
