Hey! This is almost the same post I've been contemplating. <g> Except I didn't 
have a picture of a kid, or, for that matter, a customer. And I haven't done 
anything special to make anyone weep. Not yet, anyway. <g>

Just last week I sent an image to Miller's, and received by FedEx overnight, a 
20x30 coated canvas gallery wrap image of Round Pond Harbor.

First image in the gallery.

Gotta agree with Ken. Miller's work is jaw-dropping good. I've had a few 
customers in the gallery who have just stood and stared. I'm sure if it had 
been of their kids, they would have wept.

Not trying to steal any of Ken's thunder here. His post is about making 
something special for a friend. Mine's just about the work.

But this won't be the last image I send to Miller's.
