Happy Birthday, Aunt Dollye!!

🎶 someone to watch over me ✨

this is my fairy godmother. today is her birthday; i have no idea how old she is, but she sure looks young to me!

Aunt Dollye, my godmother, has encouraged my artistic senses from the beginning; here is a piece of Starry Nights nano-art (easeled, right) that she gifted me long  ago… when set alongside a work of mine called Tempest, well you can see the influence that Van Gogh has had on my eyes for perhaps two decades now, thanks to her…

My dear birthday aunt also patrons my artist career as a collector, most notably – her recent acquisition of the famous Field of Oz (2024), shown below.

Thanks for all the encouragement; happy birthday; and keep collecting, Aunt Dollye!

To have and to hold an original work of art is love; all else is a form of longing.
