That's us in the middle . . . okay, not really, but hum along.
Yes, this happened to be when my grand daughter arrived, but still we managed to fit in a ton of art.The first thing we did was to shop a local flea market. Sorry, no photos; we were too busy shopping.
The next day we went to NYC. To Metaliforous, M & J Trims, to Tinsel Trading . . .
We visited many NYC stores, but the most notable was this one - the secret stash.
An amazing store and incredible mess.
I bought this (plus, plus, plus!).
and made this -- a total copy of my good friend Karen Cole's work.More to come . . .
And GO PHILS!
great post! LOL over the first pix!
ReplyDeletewow crazy good store, and your piece does look a bit like her work, but gorgeous!
It may be a total copy but it's GORGEOUS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYay!!!! the Phills came through.
ReplyDeleteYour copy of Karen's work fooled me...when one copies one must do it well and you did ;)
I love our group photo Leslie!!! We are smokin' hot, and I hadn't even noticed! We did have fun, didn't we? Thanks for every little thing, and for being the best hostess! When's the next trip, you know you're welcome here anytime! ?

Beautiful, Leslie! I think you are on a roll with creating gorgeous artwork and books.
ReplyDeleteI am flattered beyond words Leslie. You are a master of all things. I envy the way you can learn and do. Not only is it artistic, it's scientific and therefore, brilliant.
ReplyDelete....and by the way, it's not a copy. It's TOTALLY your colors.
Very cool creation! Congrats on Sophie!
