The TimeKeeper by Jamie Miller
(collage on canvas with antique watch parts and antique photo from my personal collection. Quote written by Me:))
Here is my entry for the Three Muses Challenge. It is not a new piece, but it is important to me. I made this for a man named Walter who ran an antique store in town with his wife. He collected and repaired pocket watches and we loved to talk about them together. He was the TimeKeeper.

Wonderful piece, Jamie.

Your time piece is wonderful! And the history of the piece is very special.

ABsolutely gorgeous
Very cool piece, Jamie ! Love the watch pieces.
Happy Thanks Giving Day to you and your gang.
This is postively wonderful and the story that goes with it makes it even the more so. I can just imagine the textures and fell this piece must have. I have a bad habit of wanting to touch things like this.
Happy Thanksgiving
What a nice gift for Walter, and thank you for sharing it with us! I love it when an entry is accompanied by a story. Thank you for sharing, and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
How appropriate and special! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece with us. Your story is wonderful, and so is this special collage. Hugs, Terri
Ooooh I hope everyone takes the time to enlarge this, not only is the collage beautiful but the quote is timeless.
Wow - this is very impressive.

Wonderful array of pocketwatch images and so nice that this piece has a personal meaning to you -lovely work!
Jamie! This piece is brilliant. As soon as I saw it I thought about the way that time just zips by on us. You wake up one day and another 10 years are passed. You have captured the essence of the quotation to perfection....hugs...
Love it, Jamie!!!!!
