That would be great....make sure to post pics of it when you do it...I'd love to see other people's creativity too.

I'm talking about doing it in paint. :wink: Guess I should have been clear about what I was thinking. Sometimes there is a "downed power line" between my brain and my fingers, and things don't come out as I intend. :roll:

That looks so cool - reminded me about a time several years ago our daughter was on her way home from a family picnic and she had car trouble. Of course she called Dad for help, but we were at our home and she was over an hour away. By the time we got to her she had used sidewalk chalk left over from the picnic to draw a tropical island complete with palm trees, flowers and fishies in the "water" in the truck parking lot where she was waiting for us. I always wonder what the truckers thought when they saw her artwork!!
