I found this cool antique store while I was out collecting ingredients for Easter dinner. I love their items, which range from oddball skull clocks to vintage Gucci and Hermes jewelry and Japanese prints. Now my chief pleasure is taking my guy friends there. After all, it’s called Mantiques!

My friend Keith encouraged me to learn how to make animated GIFs. They are super fun and easy in Photoshop. For a quick tutorial go to THIS PAGE. I used one of my paintings, then just chopped it a bit and added fun letters… it’s a fantasy ad for a store. It’s always fun time when it’s time to shop!!!
