Lex's new painting

Lex’s latest painting

Posted on 5 Aug ’10 by Nikki Murray

She gave the “weird” paints I bought her another try, even though I promised to pick up more of her regular paints tomorrow. I try to leave her alone while she’s painting and not get too nosy so I vacuumed around the house a little while she worked. While on the phone with a friend, I happened to walk by her easel and see her finished piece. It’s another automatic favorite.

    Reminds me of a negative of a palm tree. But then again; I live in Charleston and see palms all day long.

      I need to find a printer who can reproduce these for me before she starts handing them away…

    It’s good to see her doing something that doesn’t involve sewing her finger to the machine.

    My name is Nikki Murray and I’m a mother of two who has been buried neck-deep in code since 1998. I presently work as a user experience and interface designer for a health IT company during the daylight hours. When I’m not freelancing during my off hours, I am prowling around with a camera or recklessly maneuvering needles.

    Also me:
