The nature painting of a ladybug on a giant flower is by Shelly Dedman.  It is a delightful piece and is displayed on the inside gate of my porch.  It fits perfect with the outdoors.

The mixed media collage of an African drummer and dancers is another piece displayed in my African themed kitchen.  It was purhased at Where The World Meets at Market Creek Plaza (now closed, sad to say)- artist unknown.

I think the title of the 3rd piece is 'Jeffrey's Angel'; created by Karen B. Field   It is displayed in my hallway.  it was purchased at a gallery in Laguna Beach.

Art enhances our surroundings.  I can't imagine life without artful expressions.

Next- Appreciating and being respectful of art  you are not necessarily attracted to.
