Fall colors


A couple more pics from New York. I just love the colors of these leaves at High Line park in NYC. Can't wait to use them for something in my art--maybe a background for a sign, maybe for a card. Who knows? When were walking through the Met, my husband and I came across the tools in the second photo and both said, "A, T and D" because we had been programmed to look for letters... I thought it was funny, would have been even funnier if they spelled something!

New York letters


While in New York, I was looking for letters....and then I got a call from a St. Louis customer who wanted to order the above name frame for her kids who live in New York City! I normally do my name frames in color, but she requested black & white. So....I made sure that I got New York letters for her order, and decided I may as well try to find the whole alphabet. Drove Don and Alex crazy, I think, but I had fun! So the letters above are from:

G is from a bridge in Central Park;
A is from an exhibit at the Metroplitan Museum of Art;
R is graffiti at a subway stop;
F is a building near the Hudson River;
I is from a railing in Central Park;
E is from a building on Broadway;
L is from an elevator at High Line Park;
D is from a bridge viewed from High Line Park.
