In my most recent blog I took a picture of one of the spaces above our bed. In the space was this painting of a cowboy that we found when we moved in. (The house we moved into belonged to Blake's grandparents.)
Come to find out, this was not just a random person, this picture is of Blake's dads brother, Eddie, who died when he was around 18. We thought it was really neat how we found this.
A couple weeks later, I was cleaning out more places in the house and came across this picture...As you can see, it is the actual photograph taken years ago that the painting was copied from. I really have no idea who painted it, and the back of the picture reads some company in Healdton, Oklahoma that does not exist anymore.
Look at the people in the background, they are not protected by a gate at all, the painting has a gate around the arena.
My brother Josh's girlfriend's father does really awesome things with pictures, and I had him make 3 of these tile pictures for Blake's dad and his uncles. Something that they can remember their brother by who unfortunately left them all so early. They are pretty big, and they put the old pieces of wood around them as the frame, rustic. Love it!
So wonderful we came across these, here is the website were you can reach Mr. Fuller to get some neat things made from your pics, even these awesome wall mount tiled pics like we got.
