ONE WORLD ONE HEART


FEBRUARY 3: Ok, I've always been a late starter! Why change now? :) So anyway, I'm in the ONE WORLD ONE HEART GIVEAWAY started last year by our sweet Oceandreamer (link on sidebar) and continuing this year bigger than ever! So, there are only two rules. One, you must have a WORKING blog, and two, you must leave a comment in THIS post so I'll know you want to be in the contest. Here's the giveaway:

A 12X16 acrylic painting on unstretched canvas titled "Backyard Birds". This is only a corner of the painting which is yet UNFINISHED as you can probably see. My scanner will not hold it all so I'll have to photograph it when it's done, but you get the idea, I hope!


There are seven birds on the painting, and a few florals with the birds not true to real life color, but just colorful fantasy! I'm not sure yet how I will present the final painting, but it will not be framed or matted. Perhaps hung via a dowl rod. I'll see how it goes. It will also be slightly smaller when it is finished. I can see it hanging with nature's sticks from someone's back yard glued all around it......but of course that's up to you. One could even sew it to a quilted backing (Ah, if only I could sew!). Or even glue it to a wood backing. Lots of possibilities. When it's yours, you do what you want!


So, leave me a comment that says you want it. DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 13. And...thanks for playing....and thanks to Mz. Oceandreamer for her wonderful original idea!


GO THERE!!!

=^..^=Judie!

This is so fantastic. Your painting ... beautiful. I love the color of it all ::sigh::

I am wondering what Mark Twain would say of me ... I have six cockatiels ::Eek:: It's true. I have a bit of a thing for birds, so I really want to win this painting. So very much!

Wish I could stay longer. That I didn't have to run. To stay and visit, look through pages and share thoughts.
Alas, I must take my leave or I shall never EVER make it to every one of the delightful blogs on the OneWorld-OneHeart Chain of Magic ::sigh:: So many blogs, not enough tea on the planet to keep me awake ::giggle::

So happy to meet you.
I'm just around the corner ... Hope you will stop by the cottage to peek in the window & say hello too!

=^..^=love, zU

sandee said...

This is a great idea! However, I just moved across country and have most of my stuff in storage. What I would like to do, is go into as many of the blogs as I can and sign in. If my name gets pulled by anyone as a winner, I will donate $100 to AIDS Foundation in memory of my brother. If my name gets selected more than once, I will up the ante an additional $10 every time it gets pulled (greedy I know, but one can dream!!!) If my name is not pulled by anyone, I will still make a $50 donation. This way, everyone is a winner.

I hope to get my name drawn at least once.
