I think this is going to be the last time I host a Tenant for a while. I almost didn't advertise this time but once again I fell victim to the siren song of those easy credits. LOL Not that you can really do anything with those credits once you get them. Just play more battles on Battles of the Blogs. And that's what I do with them.

To the left is art from the featured artist on Shipp's site this week. It seems very appropriate for St. Valentine's Day. The person in the drawing is willing to give up their heart. Literally. I guess we've all thought our heart was being torn out from time to time--I guess Morten Bok was trying to illustrate that idea. It's an arresting piece!
Jeremy's got such a pretty site and so much original content that he's great to visit. However after reading a lot of that content I'm quite puzzled as how to proceed.

Each week there's a profile of an artist. This week is Morten Bak, aka ketchup-suicide, a 25 year-old resident of Denmark and a multi-faceted artist. Definitely worth a look. His use of colors--even that dreaded purple color!--is sparse but very effective. Probably more so since so many of his works only have a few splashes of color. Often red.

Again, a picture taken that can be used with Saint Valentine's Day. Pumpkin loves the moldy banana but the banana just says goodbye. It just brings you back to that picture at the top of the post--where the heart is being offered. *sniff, sniff*

I'll have to go back and visit Haunted House Dressing later on when I have a bit more time, but the bit I read caught my attention.

It's a new look since last I was here...I like it! I liked the old look, too, but this is quite unusual and easy on the eyes as well...
About those furry cuttings on my blog....This is how they look when they are older and being up very high, too...I think it's a sun protection thing....and also, the more it flowers the furrier they get....Amazing plants aren't they?
I have never understood the 'rental business'...and these points or credits..For What, pray tell? If you can explain it to me, I'd appreciate it very much, my dear...
I'm a Michele person.
I really like your blog. I've earmarked it and will come back. I will also spend some time at Haunted House Dressing. Glad to meet ya.
You do seem to entertain some interesting sites. I am headed for Cyberia in a minute...you make an adorable Professor-like character.
Peace..................
