It is a Dog's World

Having Andrew Wyeth's dog prints on my mind, I checked out an audiobook about a young teen & his dogs:I had heard many things about the novel & took it with me on my Thursday Road Trip to Lexington, KY (and back). I am nearing the end of the book now. I am still recovering from all the driving I managed in one day.

This is probably my second favourite -- Andrew Wyeth (IMO) had painted some beautiful nature & dog pictures.
We bought this book. DH always thought Helga looked like my sister! I have enjoyed reading thru it & viewing all the pictures. This was another painting DH liked (it is in the book):
The Ides of March, 1974

Thanks for sending e-mails & sharing your thoughts on this great artist. It must have been great to see an exhibition of the real paintings & drawings.
Master Bedroom
This is our print. When you walk into the bedroom, it is on the opposite wall. It is under glass, double mat.

Give aways ...

This print hangs on the wall above our bed:

Master Bedroom, 1965
Andrew Wyeth's obituary was in the newspaper today. DH & I have enjoyed his paintings. Slide Show here with some of his work.

This afternoon, Karol and I will be taking a class taught by Pat Winter. It is an Inner Child Doll class at LaBeada Loca in Valparaiso, IN. The temperature has risen above zero & the wind picked up, too. Mother Nature needs to just cool it for the afternoon : )

Visiting Pat's blog, I noticed she has a giveaway posted ... as does Marjorie. Marjorie had mentioned she is sorting thru her stash & finding new homes for 'goodies'. Looks like Karol is also giving away gifts (or maybe it is a PIF). Generous bloggers bringing some delight into our Winter blahs ...
