I'm all for keeping him. Of course, the next time something bad happens, we can blame it on him!<br /><br />Ms Moon: I am amazed at the things people do.<br /><br />Lynne: It's just the hair. Dave actually got quite a kick out of it! Ben Wilson paints ON the gum -- it becomes the canvas.<br /><br />Linda Sue: I'm amazed that the gum artist's paint lasts as long as it does.

Anything with a face must be adopted, I think that is the universal rule of kindness...The gum art is fantastic! He must use very strong paint of some sort. Love the link to all of the little gems. You are a prize finder!<br />Thank you for the book title, I will look for it, I have read Julie of the wolves a long time ago when Erik was wee.Linda Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03070050388987072100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-57272025461814370672013-09-29T14:35:56.552+01:002013-09-29T14:35:56.552+01:00I"m with Reya on this one.

Did he paint around the piece of gum? Or directly on the squashed surface?Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875008154587045790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-54474747950333051172013-09-29T13:57:30.437+01:002013-09-29T13:57:30.437+01:00Human creativity knows absolutely no bounds, does ...Human creativity knows absolutely no bounds, does it?

Gently and respectfully dispose of it. <br /><br />I am not joking!<br /><br />As for the chewing gum art, well - wow! I love our human creativity. When I notice something that's been in my field of view for awhile, to me that means something about my mind has shifted, slightly or more than slightly. Maybe something about what you have to look at while at work has altered your focus just enough that you saw the painting. Maybe.Reya Mellickerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076092659507965666noreply@blogger.com
