Bats are our Friends... So sad WNS Killing our little winged Mammals

On the week end we were so blessed to have wonderful summer like temps..
We sat on our deck had a little BBQ and the kids played board games
on the picnic table into the night..
I was so pleased to see that my little winged friends
were back and love to watched them at dusk flit around over my head..
I have often considered putting up a bat house ,
but never got around to it..
I was horrified to read in the paper this morning about
WNS(White Nose Syndrome)
I find this so sad..

There is no cure for the disease, and wildlife biologists are
seeking ways to prevent it from spreading.
GOOGLE this to find out more...

♕A Box A Box ☐☐☐ My Kingdom for A Box!!! ♕A Shipping Story

So very many times, when I sell a painting
I have to go on the hunt..
the hunt for the perfect box to ship my creation.
I used to hunt for the perfect size.. the right dimensions..
That was before I learned how to make a perfect box!
Again I found my self without a box..
I finally went on the ULINE site
and ordered a bundle of boxes!!

This has changed my shipping anxiety!!
I just make the right box!
Cuts down on shipping costs too!

"Little Wendy" Savannah Bird Girl Original Acrylic Painting* Soft Fluer de lis Stamped background Texture

Ever since I saw Bird Girl on the cover of
"Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil"
I was enchanted by this sweet girl with the sad
face.. head tilted in silence.
I have been wanting to paint her for a long time
She is painted on a
textured back ground with fleur de lis
around the outsides.
Sage green highlights and midnight blue
undercoat give this a quiet presence.
