Some of my favorite Dream Tolle Perry Paintings!

If you have been reading my blog for a while, or even a short time, you will know that my best art friend in the whole wide world is Dreama Tolle Perry! Although we have only met once (she lives in Kentucky and I live in California) she is simply wonderful and we do talk every day. Ok, perhaps two or three times a day. Ok, sometimes four. 

I often refer to her as my "business partner". I mean ... we do co-host a radio show together. So, today is her birthday and even though I tease her a lot about "not having resources in Kentucky", I would love it if you all wished her a Happy Birthday! Her blog is http://dreamatolleperry.blogspot.com/. 

Have a wonderful birthday my dear friend! 

Flamingo

I just returned from my Girl's Night Out in Hermosa Beach. What fun! (As I mentioned in yesterday's post, my dearest friend is moving to Oregon so we all went away for the night to wish her bye-bye1). These are also the girlfriends that put the flamingos in our front yard on our birthdays.
So I thought it might make sense to paint a flamingo for my girlfriend so she would always have one, as we will miss putting them in her yard on her birthday.

Free Birthday Giveaway - Day #1

Pin It

Today officially starts my "birthday week". And I have always believed it is way more fun to give presents than to receive them! Some of you may remember that last year I painted 27 6" x 6" paintings in three days and gave one to each couple attending my 50th birthday party (see photo above). It was really fun, but I wish I would have thought of the idea farther in advance (like maybe even five days ...). Painting twenty-seven paintings in three days was a marathon!
So this year, I have decided to give something away for free for the seven days leading up to my birthday. Today will award two packs of notecards (12 total - value $36.00) to one of you that leaves a comment on my blog. And no birthday wishes ... I have a week until my birthday!
One more thing ... all blog posts this week will be eligible for the free painting giveaway (next Tuesday!) so the more you post ... the better chance you have!
