My House - by artist ~ANTMy House

by ~ANT

"Too bad Randy isn't here to see this". Someone said to me after seeing the work I had done for the Hands in renovating their house. Hmmm. I don't see it that way. I know Randy IS watching. Without him, none of this - the renovation nor this painting would have ever happened.

Randy has given me the opportunity to learn, grow, and to push my limits as an artist whether I'm working on construction and/or painting. Because of Randy Hand I am a better person, a better human being. He can see everything and I know he is proud of what we all are doing.

Randy loved his house. On a hot day in the late summer of 2006, I was talking to Randy on the sidewalk in front of his house. We were joking and laughing, talking about the million dollar ideas we had. Randy made a comment that really stuck with me. Randy suggested in a simple comment through his proud smile, shiny blue eyes, and loving heart... look at me. You can do it too. No matter the circumstance, you can do anything.

With proud joy Randy said, "It ain't much, but it's My House!"
