Charlie E Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Bought the pattern on Etsy and tweaked it a little. Also added the "3 little birds". He'll be living next to Willie. Figured they'll have something to talk about. 3/8" white oak with walnut backer. ***Richard commented below that I'm getting quite an array of celebrities in my collection. Wanted to share my reply so I can brag on my forth coming Hattian Grandkids. I am getting a fairly diverse collection of celebrities. I think 42 portraits now, some with several people in them. I noticed a few months ago that, unintentionally, all I had were white males. (Except for Aunt Bee in an Andy Griffith group ) I'm intentionally trying to diversify my collection in race and sex. I'm very excited that my son is adopting twins, a boy and a girl, from Haiti. I realized one day how my new grandchildren might feel if all they see is white men on my shop walls. Besides protecting their feelings, my shop is a happier place for it.

I've never done drugs of any kind but the herb doesn't seem to be doing Willie too much harm. He's loosing his wind but he's 87 years old. If it's ever legal in Alabama I may have to see if it does anything for my depression/anxiety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomanydogs Posted April 25, 2021 Report Share Posted April 25, 2021 Congratulations on your new grand children, that will be a very exciting and busy house. All your celebrities are excellently done.
