Velvet…

As most of you know I love to collect velvet paintings

I saw a thing on tv a while back about The Velveteria Museum in Portland and they interviewed a woman named Juanita who works in velvet…

I just had to track her down. Why??
I wanted to commission her to do a painting for me. Well today it arrived!!

Gerry had no idea what it was I needed some money for… I just told him it was something good, so he was VERY excited when he opened the package.And found this amazing painting of our family. HOW FREAKING AMAZING IS THIS?? I got goosebumps when I saw it…
The detail is so fantastic and Juanita used sparkles to highlight everything… oh dear. My photos do not do this painting justice.
JUANITA! You are rad!! I love it.

    I need to go to Portland now, notwithstanding living in a far remote place within the U.S.

    These paintings are terrific.
