Good Afternoon all y’all,
It is almost August, if you can believe it. Exactly two weeks until our Gator Girl Art and Friends of Samuel Square Party. If you are in or around New Orleans, I hope you come by.
Angela and I sent our application in for a huge grant to improve Samuel Square. I have a good feeling about it. It is for $75,000 and their decision is between two parks. It might be good if you picture us at the ribbon cutting of the new playground.
Today, I am going to share the finished Making Amends. I chose the name because those were the words that refused to be covered.
I oiled and varnished the frame. I like the rich brown color. The wood is the top half of a door. The top hinge is still on the right. I couldn’t decide why the painting wasn’t finished for a while. Then I put the sun further back and voilà.
I feel like I know her.
I think he is going to do something special for the world.
I am getting some giclee’s made, framing a print, making a menu. It is exciting to have a party. My Aunt Grace is coming with three of her childhood girlfriends, so I already know it will be fun.
Until later,
You are always in my heart,
Gator Girl Art 
I LOVE this blog! Making Amends is perfect. Live her face and the baby’s face. I didn’t know we had an Aunt Grace! MMM
We do have an Aunt Grace! And Thank you.
Great piece, great title! Hope you get the grant too … =D
Is it OK if I link you in my blog next week? I love your art. I was going to direct my friend and my sister to your blog, and then thought about adding a link. Next week, my blog is “More Artists I Adore”. Thank you so much for your comments.
Yes, I would love that – thank you so much! I am really honoured to be asked … =D
Beautiful. All the very best for your grant.
