happy birthday blogosphere
The above image is something I found when following Sitemeter to a Brazilian blog a few months ago. She made the coolest mosaic of some of my paintings and now I've lost the link!
The blog (as opposed to this blog) is 10 years old today. Who knew? And how come, if it is such a mainstream part of the interwebs now, my spell check still wants to correct the word 'blog' (as WW pointed out) every time I write an email or document? There's a good post on the subject over at Snippets from Spaceship Orion plus a link to a Wall Street Journal article.
Anyway, this is just a quick wave goodbye for a couple of weeks as August will be jam-packed with activities and holiday fun (I hope...), but I'll check in when I can. Farewell my lovelies.

Wow - thanks for the heads-up on this day ... I had no idea!
Your mosaic is utterly lovely.
Hope you enjoy your next couple of weeks ... in some beautiful place and in the company of good people.
I would so like to have that mosaic on my wall!
Happy hols to you and your men!
I am glad we have the blog world.
I can't believe it took me so long to catch on.
Love the mosaic. Your art is stunning.
I love the houses. I like to visit the small towns in Texas for their old victorian homes. These homes are just inspiring with there use of color and design.
I'm concerned that you give away way too much personal detail in your profile. :)
Did it feel odd to see this mosaic of your art the first time? It's beautiful! I want it to be an "advent calendar" where I can click on each box and discover a story, or a photo, or another painting underneath :-) Enjoy your holidays! After being sick for so many weeks, you deserve some August family fun :-)
smooches, smooches, hurry back
enjoy your holidays!!!!
beautiful mosaic!
I'm going to miss you very much. I like my daily shots of Andrea. But, in your line of creative endeavor, it is that time of year. After all, around here it's Filberg Festival weekend.
Have frolicsome fun
Ian
Enjoy your break, Andrea.
That mosaic should be in a gallery or the lobby of a very important address in Manhattan.
Have an abfab break and get inspired by the unexpected out there in the rw.
August was originally named SEXtilis because it was the 6th month in the Roman calendar.
I'm just sayin' is all.
I love this mosaic. I love your rich bright colours, & the light & shade in your paintings.
And if the blogosphere was like a universe, your blog would shine like the sun, lighting up the blogosphere!
Ihad never even heard of blogging until a year or so ago. Geat mosaic. Have a fun August!
Thanks for the mention, Andrea.
That mosaic, with all those pieces right next to each other, shows the brightness and beauty of your work.
I'd pay bucks for that mosaic, I really would!
Hooray! 11 more years and the blog can start drinking legally!
love
Cool mosaic and enjoy your break!
I know you have a busy month, but I did want you to know you have an award waiting for you here. You can pick it up at your lesiure.
... I was thrown when you said it was on a Brazilean blog because it looked so like your work. Have a great summer!
This is the 10th day of August, and I finally get to wish you a great summer break! Enjoy whatever you are up to, under the blue sky of summer.
Wow. Your art/mosaic is stunning! What beautiful art you create, really inspiring. Have a nice holiday!
have a great holiday!
xo
Have fun! ;-)
