The only artwork in my living room was painted by penguins. Literally.

I think that would make a very nice canvas poster to put on the wall, door, or window for Halloween.

The photo reminds me of some of Ansel Adams' work, and I mean that as quite a compliment, Lainey!

Thanks so much folks. Sue, nice compliment! Thanks!

One more tree, no headstones. Took this on our trip to MD for Spring Fling 2013. We like to go a day early and do a little roaming around.



Would like to see Roseanne's art by penguins!

It's kind of like this:



N.E.W. Zoo (home of Aldo the Bear) was having a charity "art" sale. I liked the penguin paintings so I bought a set. I wanted to do something to support the zoo that took in the cutest dang little orphan bear ever. Since they don't have bears do paintings, I opted for the penguin portraits.

My daughter has animal art all over her house. Since she and her live-in boyfriend are both zookeepers, they really like it and personally know the animals who made them.

She's back to work but on desk duty. I need to talk to her and find out how she's doing.
