My boys are being painted!
My friend Moey is such a good sport. We have been FB friends for as long as I can remember. We have never met but I feel like I know her and she knows me so well. A few years back when I got the chickens I asked her if she could work me up a pic of all the chickens. And did she ever! I love it more than words can say. She would keep me updated with little looks at what she as doing along the way. It seemed like the painting took the slow boat from Austrailia to get her. The pic finally came. Mark and I went right out that evening and had it framed. Now it hangs in the hallway for everyone to see. And I love it..did I say that?
I asked Moey awhile back if she would have the time to doing something small with the goats. She has a house full of kids, a husband and she is in school. I think she might be busier than me. She agreed and asked me to send some shots of the boys that I liked. I did...I sent a ton I think. Moey is always good to read the NottaLotta Farm blog so she knows the personalities of each of the boys...just like she did with all the chickens. I figured that Scoot would be the most challenging to paint. I know that I have a hard time getting a good shot of him. He is most always shy and the last to join in. Ever since his surgery, he is a little leery of me. And I think she captured that so well. And she even has hi collar and bell around hi neck. I love it! I am so looking forward to seeing how she paints the rest.
Funny thing about it is that while I am sleeping she is working. Like right now it is 1 in the afternoon here while in Perth it is 1 am. I woke up this morning just knowing that she was going to post something today. I dreamed about it all night last night. Bright and early I was up checking FB and sure enough I saw this cute little face smiling at me.
Thanks, Moey!
