Hey Beautiful People!
My lovely man keeps an eye out for boards for me to paint on when he’s out and about. I flipped when he gave me this one because the natural grain in the wood was CRAZY cool! A large round face, the shape of these eyes and an outline of a smile was in the very wood itself. Immediately I knew what I would paint! Actually, she pretty much painted herself; I was along for the very happy ride!

I thank you. Your art really makes me happy. Only when I see your avatar… That’s the most clever, cheerful and artistic thing ever. If you’re so open to my suggestions, crazy ideas or simply idle talk I intend to tell you whatever crosses my mind in the future, too. Maybe after a year or so, when you get to know me, you’ll create an avatar especially for me. I’d like to see how you… see me. 🙂 How’s that for a challenge? 😀

You are more than welcome to say anything here. You always make me smile! My avatar is actually just a very small detail of my painting of the Greek Goddess of Love, Aphrodite. I call her Afro-dite and that is a detail from ‘afro-dite paints the town’. It’s a really fun painting. On my website under fine art. It sold a few years ago but I use her face as my Blissbait Art logo as she just makes me smile! I’m glad You like her! 😊 I think the avatar You have now is sooo cool! Don’t know if I’ll be drawing avatars for anyone in the future (myself included!!!) but You never know. Cheers! 🤗

So is it a way to see the whole Afro-dite paints the town? I tried to find it myself, but I got lost. 🙂 As for “my avatar” no pressure. Someday… if you feel inspired… 🙂
