Hello,
Today I would like to show you my personal favorite work of art. In recent years there has been a turn toward the handmade as opposed to the mass produced, and I am very much for it.
This is the work of artist and illustrator Vanessa Valencia that I came across and loved it instantly.
Vanessa has used prints from old cook books as well as her own strokes of whimsy and artistry to create this little work of beauty. It now sits over my desk and I cherish it. Thank you, Vanessa.

Oh it's just lovely, I would certainly have it in pride of place on my wall. I like that it has used the print from an old cook book. Handmade art is so precious.
That is so unique. Like you said, it is not massed produced and makes it one of a kind!!!
[by the way, have I ever told you my daughter's name is Irene?]
