Yes we've still been busy here on the go every day--had to hit the stores after Christmas (sales are too good to pass up), visiting family, and yesterday we were here--
in Cleveland at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. We always go here every couple of years, and they're in the process of re-designing it, and the changes are good. I like the way they span over the years, (from the 50's till now), but mix them together to keep the interest of any age group. And they always have the top 2 floors (the peak part--it's so neat inside--picture taking, not allowed) dedicated to one artist for about 6 months or so. This time, as you can see, it's Bruce Springsteen--not a big fan of his--sorry. It's a very interesting place even if you're not a big rock and roll fan--but we are--so we love it!
BTW--look at the snow--hardly any--what's with that? I think they're the only place that didn't get that much.
BUT.....I've been able to make a little time for art. Here's a sneak peek--
And one more thing--a couple of people wanted to know more about the blog book. You can go here to find out more. I'm so glad that they offer this. It's so great to have an actual book to see all of the work that you put in to making your blog, and what a great item to pass down to your family.

I am so glad to see a photo of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. My musician friend is originally from Cleveland and he has told me about it. BTW, we have had NO snow, no moisture, and today the temperature is supposed to be over 60F. Can you believe it, with all the snow in the west and the east?
You are such a tease. Those little birds are ADORABLE. I am sure I'm going to love the piece once you unveil it.
Happy holidays and here's to a great rest of your vacation.
Dear Diane,
Love the sneak piece of birds, and flower-looks so lively-- and wow, what a building, must be fantastic actually standing there seing it.
Hope your rest hollyday will be spend on equal great experiences.
Hugs,Dorthe
how very fun and cool, the rock and roll hall of fame!
oooh, what a teaser with the sneak peek of something good to come...wait, it's already here, right here...BEEOOTIFUL!!!
I'm glad you had some time to finally do some art,this piece looks like a good one,can't wait to see it.
Fun, at first glance I thought you were in Paris. I love your birds, hope you share the finished piece. I got the sweetest ornament from my hubby with a little birdie on it.
Happy Day to you Diane!

I am so LOL - At first I thought you were at the Louvre in Paris. Oh well, fun thought! Happy New Year to you and your family, and Bob!
Love your blog:) I found you via the Strathemore Journal workshop. I live in Norwalk, Ohio but am originally from Cleveland and yes you are right - we have almost no snow compared to the rest of the northeast! And I'm not sure how that happened either. Have a great New Year and I will be back to visit again!
Diane!
before the year ends I wanted to reach out to you to wish you and your family a new year, filled with smiles, warm cookies and many, many art days.
I also wanted to say thank you for your inspiration and support during this past year. Even though you and I have never met, I feel like we have been friends for years.
Keep creating!
PS the Blog book is terrific!
