Strange Dreams

It was a strange dream she said, and I don't remember a think except it kept my attention the whole time.
 This morning I took a 'painting' (really a print with some gel slapped on it to make it look painterly) I had bought at the local thrift shop and stuck some vinyl letters on it, painted over the top and Voila! Just like on Pinterest - only theirs are much neater....
 The quote is from "Strange Dreams" collected stories and drawings by Brain Andreas. I love his stuff.

hmm, would love to hear more about this process! Or could you send a link to the inspiration on pinterest?

Your creativity-even with ideas from somewhere else--constantly amazes me! It also makes me wish I had 1/10th of that creative spirit! Awesome work. BTW, the latest Martha Stewart (Feb) features a bunch of heart jewelry. Makes me think of the very first piece you gave me--a red heart with a green "K" embossed into it. I also have one that is "broken" with a tiny bandaid across the "break." Maybe I should hang on to these for when you get really famous?

What type of paint did you use? I love how you can see through yours - the ones on pinterest that I've seen are pretty opaque. Awesome work!!
