Art Work pending

You might have noticed that I didn't post yesterday as usual.  There is a simple reason, really!  My 21 month old grandson visited for Thanksgiving and I am missing a cable that would down load the pictures I wanted to share with you.  I'm sure the cable is in a drawer or trash can somewhere in the house...I just haven't found it yet.

So, in the meantime let me tell you about what I wanted to share with you.  Do you remember my delightful talented neighbor, Willa Cahill?   She is the artist who was one of nine children who was actually encouraged to paint on a wall.  Consequently she has no fear of creating art in large spaces.

Recently she was commissioned to paint a Christmas scene of Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus and Angels.  The painting is over 7 feet tall and 5 feet wide and was painted under the influence of William Adolphe Bouguereau.  I've included a picture of Mr. Bouguereau here that I found at  Wikipedia.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William-Adolphe_Bouguereau

I thought you'd also like to see one of his magnificent paintings.
I'll post the pictures of Willa's work as soon as I find the cable.  You are going to love her work!
