I'm So In Love With...

Yesterday was a good day.  A very good day.  
My junksista Kathy and I spent over 2 1/2 hours at a marvelous estate sale.  
This is my favorite of all my finds.  
It's painted on black velvet, but this ain't Elvis folks.
It's 'Kewpie.'
 One look into those eyes and I fell for him.
The velvet is shattered along the stretcher bars.
There are holes here & there.
He's been around a long, long time.
Look at the backing.
The artist, M. Schomig wasn't exactly a pro at proportions
but he/she sure did capture Kewpie's soul.
I'm so in  love with 'Kewpie'.

    I don't think I've ever stayed at an estate sale for 2 1/2 hours! That's a LOT of looking!
