I read Vic's blog and she reads mine and we chat and we sometimes hello or "like' on bookface. In my mind Vic is one of my friends - she is just one I don't see very often.
Recently on my blog I mentioned my obsession with Little Red Riding Hood .
Badabing badaboom !
So Vic, just whips up a work of art....does the redbubble thing and has it sent to me! I was (and still am) totally floored. I have no concept of how works like this are created and you all know I have no drawing genes at all, but you know, the time folks and the effort and the thought-that's what kills me. And yes I do tend to get a bit Oprah when talking about blogging and blog community , and yes I know the shitty bits, but on most days, blogland and the people in it and their complete unbound generositywill go a bloody long way to curing what ails you.
Vic, you are a damn fine egg .
Thank you, I adore it. It elicits smiles every time I look at it and today it is off to the framers!
Linkies?
ReplyDeleteShe is a good egg, and a clever one too.
ReplyDeleteVic is AH-MAZING!
ReplyDeleteI'd give my right arm to have that much illustrative talent.
Vic is a very, very good egg - one of the best infact - you two have that in common. Absolutely beautiful drawing - lucky, lucky, lucky!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteFunny how Good Eggs seem to find each other...(but geez... that is a heck of a work of ART).

ReplyDeleteThat is so cute! The blogging world is pretty good!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's really great! What a pal!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Vic is pretty wonderful! What a great gift. I also agree that about 99% of the time blogland is a pretty fantastic place. Oh, and you DO have drawing skills. As a refresher, see your own Storyboards, i.e., BAXTER.
ReplyDeleteYes, that Red is so totally fantastic and so is blogland! Agreed on all fronts!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful work of art and a beautiful friendship too ♥
ReplyDeleteAwesome. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow! What a fabulous surprise!
ReplyDeleteGood Egg indeed - well done that Vic!

ReplyDeleteAnd I concur with the overall blogland goodness. You're one of the goods :)
She is definitely a friend that one- a lovely clever and generous one too
ReplyDeleteYep, blogland has some really fine people. And yes, some very generious ones. I LOVE the Red Riding Hood painting. You lucky gal!
ReplyDeleteI also like your drawings. There is something sweet and simple that I enjoy when I see your drawings of clocks, bowls, musical notes, and whatever props your cast of characters need. ;0
Hip, Hip, Hooray for blogland!
OMG! Awesome...what a damn fine, very talented, friend...
ReplyDeleteOOoooh...I love that dark and forbidding forest behind her!
ReplyDeleteI missed this - how lovely!!! :)
