You are welcomed. I took a picture of a violin I was finishing atop our azalea bush and kept changing it with Photoshop.

M'god, Donuel, how long did it take you to Photoshop that?

So often I hear the question of how long does it take.
There was a number of hours involved but whenever you are doing something you love there is no sense of self or time.

This is wonderful. I've forwarded the picture and the poem to my art teacher buddy- he'll love it, and I smell an integrated music/art/writing lesson coming soon to a school near me! Kids inventing all sorts of instrument trees, while the greatest music in the world plays, and then writing poems about their creations.

I'd always thought MagnifiCat was a Catholic animal superhero, aided by that Nanny Goat Of Steel, The Flying Buttress. Let the kids draw that. Meanwhile, plant those fiddle trees in groves!
