Better in Person

I know, I keep going on and on about this giant circle of lemons. But if you could only see it in person. . .!

I vacuumed the studio, rearranged things to lessen the working clutter and make it look more like a gallery and showroom (as much as an 11×14′ former shed can). Then I set up the easel and covered the painting.

We laughed together about the unveiling, and the first thing after, “I love it!” was “It DOES look better in person!”

They brought their specially made frame, and it was PERFECT.

P.S. We look better in person too. Thank you for your concern.

  1. That is truly magnificent!

    • Thank you, Anonymous! I feel a bit overly proud. (Gotta watch that fat head syndrome. . .)

  2. What a good feeling to have when someone loves the work done!!

    • Janet, that keeps me going! Thanks for checking in.

  3. Yes, it IS beautiful, even not in person!

    (And don’t get me started about the camera adding 10 pounds, showing flaws, etc. Why do you think NONE of my vacation photos include people?!)

    • Hey Sharon, “Does this dress make me look fat?”
      Answer: “Nope; your fat makes you look fat.”

      Anyone else want another cookie?

        My philosophy? “If it ain’t chocolate, it ain’t worth it!”

        • Amen, Sister!

  4. I think your lemon painting turned out great, even if I can’t see it in person. It’s going to be an eye-catching piece in their home. Nice job!

    • Thank you, Marjie! That one was a fun challenge on many levels. Very satisfying to complete.
