My newest piece of art




I've always loved my friend Julie's art. I had asked her about buying a piece in the past but it never came of anything, until she recently had an open studio night. I knew I wanted something of her's, and I knew it had to be this one when I saw it. It reminds me of the first work of hers I ever saw, a painting of a little boy dressed as a clown that was hanging in her old apartment. Last weekend Lance I went to Utrecht in the city to try to find a ready-made frame for it, and I think we found a pretty great one. Only $ 16.50. So much cheaper than if I tried to have it custom-framed. It's hanging in Lance's room, what is soon to become our room, and is the first thing I've really moved in down there.
