Marlene Rye is an amazing artist, a Smith College graduate and the mother of a beautiful, smart little boy. While I was in college I nannied part-time for her kiddo, who was just barely out of babyhood. In return, she gave me a piece of her art. I love it...but I want more. I love this one--it's called "The Quiet." Check out her page, enjoy her work, but please hold off buying <-- this piece unless you're buying it for me. :)
