Everyone Looks Good in a Witch's Hat!

I thought I would give a little Halloween touch up to a rather interesting picture. My husband on the other hand doesn't find it interesting or unique. No, he Hates this picture with a capital "H"!

I'm not exactly sure why I'm drawn to portraits, but this one in particular just spoke to me. I guess its because I wonder who the portrait is of. What is the story behind that person being painted? Is it a picture of the artist's mother or is she painting a self portrait? Well, to get my husband to shut up about it and stop begging me to take it down, I thought I'd give it some Halloween flair!

Here she is before!





And here she is all dressed up for the party!



I'm thinking I need to get the red paint ready and paint a Santa hat for Christmas on her!

Happy Sunday everyone!

Off to cheer for my son's 6th grade Football team to victory!

    Love it! I wasn't sure at first, but I tend to agree after seeing this - everyone does look good in a witch's hat!

    Ha! I love it. Little surprises like that around the home at the Holidays are the best.

    That is funny. Maybe you will have to get some green paint for St. Pat's day too!

    Hilarious! Maybe you can do with it like my neighbot does with her concrete goose--an outfit for every season.
