Paris in Canada!

Recently I sold one of my 'Paris je t'aime' prints to a lovely lady from Canada, Kathy, of Katie's Cows and Udder things. (Don't you just love the name?!) who told me she had plans for it as part of a mixed media canvas. Well, I always drool over anything like that, so was really excited about seeing the finished piece... and here it is! 
 I took the photograph of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Created the print with it in New Zealand,(with the fan going full blast in 90% humidity/28 deg heat) sent it to Canada where Kathy created this (in colder than I can begin to imagine temps!) No doubt the other lovely things she used to create the canvas came from all over, so it really is a worldwide creation! You can see it properly and also more of the amazing work she does on her blog and Etsy Shop I'm in love with her painted signs and bottles!

  2. I love the artwork--but also the story. I have been lucky enough to go to Paris twice and my daughter lived on the north island of New Zealand for about a year 4 years ago! She loved it so much and all her pictures were so wonderful...we hope to get there someday ourselves!
