Hi Everyone....
These past few weeks have been magical to say the least....It is so wonderful that we hosted the 21st Winter Games here in Canada...but to also break some records for the most Gold Medals is like icing on the cake...
We watched our men's hockey team yesterday and were on the edge of our seats throughout a wonderful game....Then with our hearts racing we watched Sidney Crosby score the winning goal! There were screams and tears at every Olympic Party here in Canada...it was a very proud moment to say the least....you can see some awesome photos by heading here...
There were so many touching experiences throughout the games this year....and I hope you all learned a little more about Canada and I hope you all know that we always welcome you back...
This week's theme on MMM is "enchanted" and I couldn't think of anything better than a tribute to these Olympic Winter Games...so here is my piece....I have some special paintings in the works....that I will show you later...but here is a quick piece I worked on during the closing ceremonies....
Happy Monday!!!
Hugs
Diana

Hi Diana!!!!! One beautiful work yet!!! =)
Bravo Сanada!!! I watch how won Canada in hockey, it was just fantastic!!! On the last second and Gollllll...
Вы лучшие, молодцы!!!
This is a very cool illustration, as are all of your illustrations.
People who create "happy" pieces of art and who express optimism intrigue me.
I guess you can figure out why.
Keep up the great work, Diana.
Oh Diane, what a lovely tribute! I loved the games myself, and really enjoyed the hockey, especially Sunday nights game!!! Hooraaaay for Canada!!!
I totally missed the Olympic because of work t when I heard the canadian team won the hockey gold medal guess who I thought of immediately? YOU!!!
I said "Oooooh Diana will be so happy. I wonder if she will blog about it." Hahahha! Okay I only said the first part. I knew you will blog about it. I don't blame you. I was even proud of your team.
