Cricket Pizza Anyone?

Snapped this photo at 61st & Mingo. I think the sign company really didn't give this enough thought.

Created this painting for my daughter before the birth of her baby on January 3, 2011. This is the largest painting I have ever attempted. It is very textured.

Mimi finally gets to hold her new grandbaby!

I had to wait until everyone else got to hold her, but she's mine now!
She's absolutely beautiful. I have to tell the story of her name. A few weeks before the baby was born, Alysia and Ulf were discussing what to name the baby. Alysia asked her husband if he liked the name Salena. With his German accent, he said, "Yes, I like the name Zalena." There you have it. Hunter has already nicknamed the little darling, "Z-Z". Love it, love her.
