come with me

Come with me

6 x 6 in.

Still all tapped out of additional words and thoughts over here. But I couldn’t just come back and then leave again without at least wishing you a happy weekend. And sometimes, just sometimes I like to leave posts how they used to be when I started this entire blogging business to begin with. A post with just a painting and next to no words.

This one is a special sock monkeys, painted at Squam and inspired by my students in my daily painting class and the stuffed red and white striped sock monkeys I saw at the General Store in New Hampshire. You never know where inspiration will find you. The secret is to stay open enough so you can recognize it when it makes an appearance.

have a great weekend.

{the originals is sold ~ special thank you to Meghan. But I have listed these two as a print over at the shop, to join the ever-expanding sock monkey family}

Happy weekend yourself lady. I love seeing you be inspired by something and then what comes out of you...now I can say I WAS THERE when you saw those striped sock monkeys!!
So adorable! How great is a sock monkey's smile? You have to smile back. =)
Those little guys are adorable.
They are sooo cute and they made me smile. :) Have a lovely merry happy weekend and love to you!
I love these little monkeys: their expressions, the placement, and their just plain old sweetness. Your weekend words over at my place really gave me a lift, Marisa: XOX
