Art of the Week – Art

October 3, 2010

Everyone took the “art” challenge very seriously – what an amazing amount of eye candy around the blogs.  It gets harder and harder to single out one piece of art each week – and I’m sure it won’t be any easier when we go monthly.  I absolutely fell in love with this painting by Cheryl, so have chosen it as our last Art of the Week.
