My Attempt At Visual Art
As I mentioned in a previous post I've recently been spending some time outside, even though It's June in Illinois. Normally by this time of the year it is already too hot and humid for me to choose to leave the confines of Home Sweet Air-Conditioned Home unless absolutely necessary.We have been privileged, however, to be the recipients of several gorgeously temperate days lately, so I have spent a few relaxing late afternoons sitting in the back yard.
On this particular day I was struck by the reflection of our Welcome sign on our house. Maybe it was the combination of the lucky vantage point of my lawn chair that day and the sentiment, welcoming balmy days in the yard - twice, even.
Whatever the reason, I felt compelled to capture the image for posterity - a reminder of a quietly lovely sight.
So, Welcome - and Welcome again - to a little corner of my yard on a late Spring day.
Is that a George Carruth plaque?
I sure wish I could answer your question! The plaque was a gift several years ago.
To tell you the truth, I had to google the name George Caruth because I'd never heard it before. I found his website and I found a cat plaque that does look like mine, but I truly have no idea if it came from that company or not.
All I know is that I like it. I wish I could be more helpful!
Do you have any pertinent information about this piece? Maybe you are the craftsman who made it?
Just be sure to let me know if mine is rare and valuable...I'll split the proceeds with you!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I hope you'll visit again!
