My 100th Post Celebration and Giveaway!

This is my 100th blog post, so I wanted to have a celebration! I have a sneak peak of something very exciting for all of you, plus you have a chance to win my giveaway!

My exciting new announcement- I am painting again! I have now started a new series of paintings. Purple paintings to be exact. Therefore, I will now be know as "The Masked Mommy" by day and "The Purple Painter" by night! Man, my secret identity (aka- my actually self) is going to start getting lost in the shuffle...

I am in love with my newest painting, and you guys (my awesome readers and trusty sidekicks) are the very first to see it! It's fresh off the easel last week. May I present to you my painting of Purple Starry Night:

For anyone who's confused or rubbing their eyes, here's what Vincent van Gogh's original looks like:


This is my first painting in my series of purple paintings, and you happened to make it just in time for my sneak peak of what's to come!

Seeing this piece "in a museum" makes me chuckle. Upload your own photograph here to see your stuff in a museum ;-)

Ok, enough silliness. Now for the giveaway :-D

I am giving away the very first poster of this painting - the artist's proof (signed of course)! It's a 16x20 size poster, and I can guarantee you won't find another poster like this one anywhere else ;-)

I think these prints would be just adorable in a little girl's room, and I think they'd be equally awesome in a dorm room! Of course, I put the original right in the middle of my living room, so who knows where it will work in your home! I just wish they had been for sale when I was going off to college and trying to fill my dorm walls ;-)

Thank you to everyone who reads this blog. I have such a good time writing, and it just wouldn't be the same if y'all weren't reading along encouraging me! You ladies inspire me every day!
