The Lion Protector from the Island of Misfit Toys: Progress report 1. This is a piece that I am doing as a (late) Birthday present for my Dear Sister. I could not make it out for her surprise birthday party this weekend and I feel just awful about that. But with her being the keeper of the children, the believer in story, I am doing this piece for her. It is on 18 X 24" masonite that is coated with a white smooth clay so that I can draw ink on it or scratch the black off delicately to reviel the white again. My hopes are to have it done by the End of January. Hopes. I love you Barb, I hope your party was as fun and full of love and friends as I see it in my head.

I am so jealous of Barb. This piece is looking sooooo gooooood.
Thanks Mr. B. I like it too.
I am speechless and so honored. This is amazing. Thanks just doesn't cut it DB. We missed you very much. There was a lot of laughter and I truly wish you could have been there to enjoy and add. It's okay though, I'll be 39 again next year. I love you back.
You are the keeper of the neighborhood kids, the tough Mom, the protector... You are the Lion. I would have loved to have been there and if things were different, would have been. This piece will be worthy of you. love db
This is so cool, can't wait to see it finished! What a lucky sis you have.
We want step 2!
I was out for a while folks. I have updated with a couple of posts including a small update to this piece. More to come soon. Promise.
