WOMAN GOLFER .... IT'S ALL IN YOUR MIND!

When my good friend and avid golfer, Suzanne, came to me with an idea for a new wall art theme last year, she had Christmas gifts for 3 of her golf cronies in mind. "How about putting distracting thought bubbles above their heads? Ones that will completely fit their individual personalities and interests, with their names included on the  caption Focusing on Her Game? Put a really difficult shot in there... like a lake seemingly MILES away surrounded by a gigantic wall of trees!"

I was game. Especially with the personalization. We emailed back and forth. She has a great sense of humor, and gave me the most outstanding traits of each of her friends, along with photos. The response from each was exactly what she had hoped for.... lots of laughter and nodding approval as they saw their specific similarities portrayed.

So when Suz and her husband invited us to their winter home in Palm Springs last week I knew what I had to do - a picture of Suzanne. A surprise picture! I know her well, so the thought bubble captions came to me with ease! Grabbing photos off of her Facebook page I went to town, and here's what she got.

Her ecstatic reaction as she saw her gift was worth 
a 1,000 hours of drawing!! 
And that's what it's all about!
