Teesha Tree

This piece was inspired by the artwork on the cover of Art and Life Magazine Canada which is on Teesha Moores website. It is not a copy but neither was it original thought so I thank
Teesha here for the inspiration and hope you all check out her website.

    Serendipity

    Messages from my Dad seem to be crawling towards me on eight legs these days.
    Let me explain ......

    A few days ago I was working for a friend getting her shop ready for our art clubs
    pot luck dinner. I told her a story about my childhood, a black widow spider and my
    Dad.

    Later that evening I caught myself ranting at the stupid people on the Doctor Phil show. I Looked at my daughter, who patiently had been trying to do her homework through my rant, and all I could remember was being her age and my Dad ranting the same way at something on the TV.
    Well!

    I apologized to said daughter and decided to go out back for a cigarette.
    While
    sitting on the stoop I was kind of giggling to myself at how Dad was coming out in me when I felt a slight tickle on my hand. Looking down I saw a baby Daddy longlegs spider on my finger, now normally I would have flinched, But instead I gently flicked my hand and said ..........go away daddy......
    then stopped...........
    realizing that Dad had just been giggling along with me.
    To me it was a sure sign that He is watching over me and
    keeping me on the straight and narrow.

    Then today when I signed onto the computer I went to one of the Yahoo groups for trading atcs and low and behold was the following link.
