I must commend both Diana and Sherman especially. Both their pieces are amazing as well. Sherman's especially is just so attention grabbing and beautifully painted. All of the works are awesome though.Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-1721926168982369412011-07-15T21:52:45.272-07:002011-07-15T21:52:45.272-07:00We loved your Portrait so much,, and also all the ...We loved your Portrait so much,, and also all the other entries...<br />this was amazing <br />love<br />tweedlesTweedles -- that's mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01349728497621875670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-60461685810013093692011-07-15T13:34:47.786-07:002011-07-15T13:34:47.786-07:00What an amazing selection of work - and all so dif...What an amazing selection of work - and all so different!
