Art Smorgasbord - My Three Wishes

Greetings!  Can you believe January 2013 is almost over?  Although I have been extremely busy and experienced some negative situations during the month, I feel my three wishes for the year are being fulfilled with God's help.

Thirdly, that I am able to continue to grow as a scholar, so that I may in turn be a better teacher.
God willing, my wishes will continue to come true.

In closing, I want to thank everyone that left a comment on my post last week regarding Lisa's and my wedding anniversary.  It was truly heartwarming and we felt VERY blessed.  Vaya con Dios - Go with God!

  14. I am glad your wishes are becoming fulfilled. I know you will continue to keep striving as that is the kind of man you are. I know you have been teaching me so much when I visit and I leave better than when I arrive. I love the piece you made for your daughter's b-day. It will be a treasured keepsake for sure. Your postcard had me amazed as I just adore tea and that cup with all your fine hand done detail grabbed me. I love following Anel's journey in her book. She is so precious.

  50. Blessing Arnoldo to you and your lovely family. I too can't believe that January has gone and left us already until next year. But it's good to take stock at the end of each month...to appreciate the gifts we were given.
    Your teacup is wonderful ~ my favourite I think. But your other artwork and beautiful photograph are stunning too.
    Happy Belated Anniversary...sorry I missed sending my best wishes earlier.
    Thanks for stopping by my place. Have a wonderful week whatever you get up to. :D
