It's that Love-ly time
of year. My favorite part of Valentines as a
kid was creating and decorating the boxes
that would hold the valentines we received
from our class mates - a colorful little
break in the monotony of our
long cold Wisconsin winters. Read on to see
how you can add some color to your
sweetheart's winter with Art: Mine, of course,
and my
featured artist and friend: Jewelry Designer,
Kathy Frey.

| Valentine: She Can Be Mine....or Yours |
 |
|
Valentine...named for the x's and o's
in the background. This sweet dog is painted
on a wood cabinet door...(one of my favorite
materials to paint on). The beauty of these
doors is the molding creates a frame around
the recessed panel, it's a perfect solution
for my trademark borders. This pup is
available for immediate purchase on Etsy
or through my studio.
Many paintings featured at AnnesArt.com
are available for sale...contact me
for the 2007 Price List...offered
exclusively to my Newsletter Subscribers through
