Geegaw Annie - Cover Artist

HALP ME! I've been swallowed up by stacks of magazines and I can't get out!

A while back I made a Women for Obama jewelry mosaic mirror. (I could not find a CATS for OBAMA campaign button or else I would have used that for sure.)
Mosaic Lady "happened" to discover Western North Carolina Woman Magazine.
They "happened" to be doing an October issue all about the elections.
ML sent them photos of my mirror, and they wanted to put it on the cover!!

We shipped it up to Max Poppers in Asheville, a very nice professional photographer, and he took this beautiful photo of it for the cover.

And then ML got 200 copies yesterday to put all around our town so she can get me more business for my Geegaw Designs!
Look at my cover, Kitties:

(Oh yeah, ML has an essay on page 30 but it's a lot of "blah blah politics blah blah Obama".)

Speaking of Obama and Asheville, he is speaking up there in 4 minutes.
I have to go now so I can watch it. I hope he sees my magazine!
ML would love to be there but she hates crowds, traffic jams, and waiting in line. (She hates waiting, period.) Plus, we have no gasses for the car in our area right now.
When she learned that there were no bathrooms for the persons in line, that really made her glad she did not go!!

Congratulations! That is excellent. I love the cover (although it would have been better if it had supported ME).

O dat's furry acitin. Remind ML not to gif ALL da copies away! Sadie, is you there? I hasn't see you in so long! I confess, I's been a bit bizzy wif Nina. I hadded an eye infection in bof eyes, then Nina had it, but she didn't get the Aunty Biotech shot dat I got, so she got the squirts! We feel GRATE, but Mom's always chasin us round wif eye goop, pills, an trips to the vet.
Purrs, sweetie!
