I finally did it! by kwind

I finally did it!

My first proper canvas is up! I did NOT take this group shot. A very talented local photographer named Erin Wallis took it last December when my sister and her kids were here from Australia to celebrate the holidays. My parents and younger sister along with her husband and two kids are also in the shot. It took me a year but I got a 24" x 36" canvas made and put it up the day we took all our Xmas decorations down! We gave my parents a smaller version to them for Christmas.

Today is the last day of 2015... wow, it went fast! I hope you all had a great year and an even better 2016.

It's a great shot and perfect for that wall! Happy New Year!

The perfect spot & the perfect house for a canvas this large! It is so impressive on the wall. We had a canvas done of our family a good few years ago but there is always someone who doesn't like their photo. A very Happy New Year Kim to you & yours!
