A Celebratory Giveaway!

OK, so I'm feeling all what-if-I-have-a-party-and-nobody-comes (read: what-if-I-have-a-giveaway-and-nobody-comments), but dagnabbit it's my bloggiversary and I'm having a Giveaway!

Call it a celebration of my still being here after five years and a token of appreciation for your being here with me.

The prize? A 12x12 (10x10 print with a 1" white border all around) of Giselle:

(The print itself has more of the blue & yellow background showing on either side of her hair, this is a  cropped picture.)

Giselle is very special to me, she's my first face painted from scratch - evah. Her wild red hair and the borderline crazy don't-mess-with-me look in her eyes speak to me so. I think the eyes creep D. out a little bit, but she's got EDGE baby! I'VE got edge and so do YOU!

So here's the scoop:

Leave a comment on this post by end of day Friday, January 28th and I will add your name to the pot. When I wake up Saturday I'll print out the comments, put them in a bowl and ask D. to pick one (if Cassie had opposable thumbs I'd ask her). I"ll announce the winner here, he or she can send me a note through the blog's Contact page and we'll go from there. Easy peasy!

I hope you win!

Congratulations on five years of blogging! Wow, that is some achievement. It must be fascinating to look back to your first post and the ones in between, and see how your space has grown with you. Love this painting, so vibrant and juicy

Love your painting!!! Congrats on the 5 years that is wonderful!

I just found you via Blue Poppy, and I'm so glad that I did! 'Giselle' is wildly beautiful, I especially love the color and texture, and the heart that I see near the left-corner (I'm always heart-spotting). I have the perfect spot for this wonderful, delightful work of art.

I would love to win the beautiful Giselle. She's my kinda gal ! Especially love her hair!

Not sure if I can win but Ive been around for most of those 5 years and commented from the very beginning. While I don't comment much anymore it's only because I am lucky enough to share RL with you.

Happy blogging 5th!

Love D
