FREE Vintage Image Thursday

This lovely lady was my husband's grandmother. Isn't she gorgeous? The first is of her in 1903 as a baby and the second at age 16 . Two images for you this week. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all of you! A great big hug is being sent your way. Use these images in your artwork for sale or not but please do not sell these images themselves. Enjoy!

Artsy Photo-Senior pics

Senior photo time. We had a fun time with photographer Jessica Ames. We met her downtown and she took us all over to capture images of my daughter, Alexandra. They are not your normal studio shots. They are offbeat and fun. I could have taken them but no Alex did not want Mom to take them because that's no fun. Sheesh! To be 17 again. Have the whole world at your fingertips and to have your whole life ahead of you. I am going to be an empty nester after this summer. :( I will miss my girl. She drives me crazy on one hand and makes my heart hurt because it is so full of love for her.
