I had to laugh ~ we watched "Marley & me" last night and I chuckled to myself (through sobs) imagining you watching w/ kids in tow. Yowzers! Such a good movie, though!

Your friend is the best artist I've ever seen. I have to admit that I' haven't seen many as I'm only 25 days old. I might be older by the time you read this. Thanks for brightening up my day. I hope you enjoy my blog too. Very Little Voice xxx

Checked it out and submitted my vote, looks like Phebus is up by 7% though...I tried to tell them my vote counted as many since I am an art historian and a coffee lover but guess it didn't work ! Good Luck to Your Friend!

That is a thought inspiring piece of art. All around the UWRF campus students have installed thought provoking scenes of art. The scenes are very interesting, and so is the art your friend has created. Kudos to you for having the courage to help a friend.
