Yay the "Things I Like" write-ups are going to be revived! First up here is a wonderful artist called Lauren Alexander. I "pounced" upon her art on one of my browsing days on Etsy, and though I am a layman when it comes to fine art, her style is one that I like! I was first attracted by her array of wonderful colors (I am always a sucker for colorful things) and then by her adorable owls. Here I've displayed my favorite owl pictures among her many - the one at the bottom left is called "The Aloof Icon" which is my fav of favs, coz it looks a little like me! The one above it is called "Wonderful Winter Land" and the one on the right is called "All Together Now". These are 8.5"x11" prints, which I think will make good V-Day gifts! Frame them up and they will not only brighten up your home or office but will remind you of your love all year round......beats wilting flowers yah? And speaking of V-Day gifts I think the lovebirds in the middle and top row called "Lean On Me" is also a good one too, personally I like it because it reminds me of how I always rely on my hubby! :P
If a print or painting is not your idea of a gift, then how about a pendant? Lauren has her some of her paintings in pendant form - that's what I call wearable ART! She has them in stickers and greeting cards too, you can see them all in her Great Gifts section here:

Lauren has a lot of owl and bird-themed paintings and prints in her shop, but if you are not a fan of pretty feathered mammals, fret not - she also does adoroable paintings of cats, dogs, bears and elephants, as you can see above. As for their titles - I'm not telling you! You can find out at
