A quick note that the Mermaid Special is ENDING! On February 28 it will close. Did you get your super-awesome deal on a mermaid print? **********************    The Painting A Day project has been truly dreamy. Here are some of the releases from the last 14 days:   Painting A Day has continued because these pieces are honestly fueling me!
