Painted Alphabet Letter Q

I have two quirky q's to share with you this week.

I'm not feeling gloomy, but I wanted to try my hand at this quote.  There is a little acid yellow in the raven and the letters have that tint, too.   I'm actually weirded out by Ravens...and quite often by Edgar Allen Poe, so this sign is going to stay in the garage for awhile.   ha!


This sign is 10" tall and 24" wide.

This sign is just sweet.   Sweet and deep.   Exactly how I like my iced tea.
 
Blush.
 
 
15" x 16"
 
Hand-painted and available in my Etsy shop...you can see the mini link at the top right of my blog or click on any picture for a link!  No stickers...no stencils...my designs.

Thanks for quietly  stopping by!

    Love both of them. Ravens never remind me of Poe, more Alfred Hitchcock, The Birds, ha..

    Jenny, love your signs. I have not (I don't think) added my email to my blogs, but I get so many emails that many times messages get lost in the shuffle and I get a lot of spam artists, so am not sure I want to add it.

    The second sign would be great for my son and his new heart pump! It pumps so strong, not only can you hear it, it makes his head shake.

    Jenny, I can remember in high school doing an English project on "The Raven". I used my father's crow decoy in it, and the teacher never gave it back. My father was SO mad I thought he would blow a gasket. But I got an A on the project.

    We saw ravens in England at The Tower, and they are huge birds. They are a bit scary, but very pretty.

    Love your signs. Love you, too.

    xo,

    Sheila

    Hi Jenny! They are both very nice, the Poe quote appeals to my dark side...

    "Quoth the Raven..." is perfect for Halloween! I love your signs. One day, when I have my own house, I am going to visit your etsy shop and do a little damage there. Just so you know.
