Yard Sale Find

Yea! It's finally yard sale season once again. I honestly get so excited when it's the weekend and there are yard sales to go to...I know, kinda lame. So far I found a bunch of clothes for Abby and so have my mom and Carole. This past weekend though, I found this great painting for $1 (framed and everything). What is even greater, is the story behind it. I noticed a little sticker on the back that said, "Verve Verta Studio". I decided to google it, and discovered it was painted by a person with a disability. The studio is located in Wilkes-Barre. Here's the link to their blog if you want to check it out - http://vervevertu.blogspot.com/ . It must be an older one though; I couldn't find a match to any of the artists there now. I really liked it to begin with, but I like it even more knowing where it came from.

What a great find. I love the story behind it. You are so good at yard saling. I love the picture also. Wondering if it came with the frame or you framed it.
