I am having fun with this vintage song book called Musical Gems for Rural and Village Schools. I hope it wasn't worth much money because I have been cutting it up like crazy for my art work. I don't even remember where I got it, I have had it a long time, but it was published in 1897. This painting, Garden of the Heart, is up on Ebay right now. The other little painting of a fairy holding a bee had a starting bid of only 99 cents! Both of them have FREE SHIPPING in the U.S. as usual!
A beautiful day today in the St. Louis area--high in the 60's, but they are saying snow flurries this weekend! That's St. Louis for you--if you don't like the weather, stick around, it'll change!

We're supposed to get snow here this weekend, too. Bah! I hope it falls only over the houses of the weathermen and weatherwomen who forecast it!!! :)
That bee is so cute!
Whenever he sees me cutting up an old book for art, my hubby always sais "Hope that wasn't worth much." Inspiration is priceless right? lol.
Love these two spring-ey paintings...
We're in the middle of a nice warm spell here in the Hudson Valley area...beautiful days. It'll probably be cold and snow-showery in a week though.
Love your paintings, and the piece painted on the musical sheet is wonderful! I've been dying to cut up one of my old copies of Pride and Prejudice; I think I need to become a bit more brave, though, to finally take scissors to it!
