Friendship ~



Hello Everyone,
Marcia from In Stillness and Simplicity and Jenny from Jenny's Heart are co-hosting a one-time blog party and giveaway, and the subject is friendship. So, I've created this post to honor all the special friendships we're so blessed with in our lives. It's also Jenny's birthday, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JENNY!

    Love all of your art selections! If I were in one of those paintings, it would have to be the one with the three friends on the beach.

    Hiya Cindy - Keeping up with you and your cats on fb - and not at all surprised that some of your "friends" in these beautiful paintings involved cats! I have a date on my bed in just a bit with my cats and a book - tea, too, probably! Go figure . . .

    Joy!

    What a lovely post. I don't know how I missed it Friday. I love art and Renoir is my favorite painter. I have a coffee table book on his life and art.
    Thanks for visiting my thrift shop tablescape. I hope you are having a good week my friend.
