ELLA – A WORK OF ART

My friend Mike Murray is an AMAZING artist!

I took a photo of Ella nearly two years ago that I adore – and wanted Mike to create a painting of the photo. We talked about it and he wanted to try a fabric canvas instead of a traditional painting. He was – and is – busy with Chiropractic school and didn’t have time to devote to the project immediately – I told him I didn’t have a deadline.

He dropped off his creation this weekend – about a year and a few months after we first talked – and it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT!

I took it down to show Amy and Jim – and Ella had to get her picture with it!

*A* is on the L with “her Ella and *M* on the R with “her” Ella!

Thanks again Mike – it is AMAZING and completely blew past my expectations!
