Sister Love

Last week I was surprised by a wonderful treat my sister created. The painting above. I had seen a picture of it when she mentioned it on her blog before and immediately I fell in love, joking about how it was going to be mine. Last week it became mine and I am so in love with it.

I don't know if I love the cow skull because it was also one of the first things that I painted in art class or if its because it reminds me of my childhood, wondering the fields and bringing back home bones of animals forgotten. I know that sounds a little weird, but I thought it was fascinating and soon our family started a collection of bones. Either reason equals nostalgia and for my sister to capture a skull so magnificent, brings joy to my heart.

I cannot wait to find the place to display this darling of a piece.

I am so proud of my baby sister.
