A Poem & A Painting: Summer Concert

I’m preparing for my first full day in Atlanta at the Design Blogger’s Conference (follow me on Twitter and Instagram for updates) but once again I have a poem (sort of) and a painting (sort of) to share.  I’m all about bending the rules ~ especially when it comes to my blog and my art!

Today I’m sharing a very special  mixed media shadowbox piece I created in honor of my son Fred, whose birthday was over the weekend.  If you follow my blog, you know he is a musician, and that was the inspiration for this piece and the accompanying poem (ahem, song lyrics ~ shhh, don’t tell).
