SPA--Down on the Farm

How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'
How ya gonna keep 'em away from Broadway
Jazzin around and paintin' the town
How ya gonna keep 'em away from harm, that's a mystery
They'll never want to see a rake or plow
And who the deuce can parleyvous a cow?
How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'

SPA--Arrows

I have the honor of hosting Sunday Postcard Art this week.  My theme is "Arrows".  Don't ask, I don't know. It just popped into my head.  I hope you enjoy playing with arrows this week.  Here is my piece.

The background is from a wonderful collagist named Evelyn Flint ( Digital maniacs, take note of this one--she's terrific) and the rest was done with brushes and a stamp from  a Google search.
