Pommers, this is gorgeous! Which is to say, your SP turned out splendidly. I just double-checked that on the Internet, and "They" said the following words are related to "splendidly":Meanwhile, please send me a copy of that magical program. I desperately need it for a new mini-pic!

Laura E. Swan May 18, 2012
Send me the picture and I will run it through the program! I mean it. So long as it is not a contest entry it's a GO! I'd love to help!That program gives back 15 years at least. Mary, I had this image put on canvas. 20x30. It was so fan to have made. The place near me that makes these is having a huge sale and I am going hog wild. I'll have I think 7 more of my pieces on canvas, too, by Monday. All different sizes! I feel like they are the beginnings of my art gallery.
Okay now to pick...
Penniless sounds good, now that I have spent all my money on those canvases! Ha! Museum worker works well. You should see my home! Okay and one more...let's see now....Ah YES! I truly am an anglophile. Oh my China collection is grand. Kinkade's work especially meant the world to me, too. (So sad he has passed away. And in his 50's. A black day for the planet!)
Thank you dear lady. I always love your visits!!
