The "Whale Tales" #16 - A black and white sketch in Green.

Reblogger
Industry Observer with Nature As Neighbors


Imagine my delight this morning when I visited my very talented AR pal Ellen Caruso. Ellen has created a lovely new sketch, with a touch of green, featuring me.

Ellen is a very creative Real Estate and marketing pro, and the talent behind of a series of advertising sketches called the "Whale Tales."

Each sketch has a Real Estate  theme and features a Daniel Gale Sotheby's agent finding the perfect match or solution for the situation.

I knew the sketch was coming, but I had no idea how she would portray me. I am absolutely thrilled that it promotes an Eco-friendly home.

Ellen, once again, hats off to you, and your talent. Salute` to amazing and wonderful you. Please visit Ellen and take a peek at all of her Whale Tales.

  Ellen Caruso - The Whale Tales

Original content by Ellen Caruso

Welcome to my 16th "Whale Tale". This one adresses a fairly new topic of my awarness and practices in Real Estate. New to me but not to

Debb Janes, EcoBroker Camas, Washington EcoBroker

You see, a few weeks ago I posted that my husband is back to building. As he applied for the permits for the new house he's going to build, he found out there are new requirements, as of 2012 New Construction must conform to be eco-friendly and energy efficient. With this he needs to hire a outside consulting firm, that inspects and assists into conforming with the requirements. When reading Debb's blogs, and getting to know her better, she embodies all there is to know about this subject. So inspired by her, this "Whale Tale" seems so fitting.

I hope you enjoy it!

Andrew, obviously, I am thrilled. At first, I thought that perhaps I shouldn't reblog it - too much, me, me, me. :) Then, I thought, "What the heck, I love it and I'm proud of it." Lol.

I know Q-man. I'm lucky to know all of these wonderful and talented people in the Rain - including you.

Robby - not even a legend in my own mind. But, thank you. ;)

Laura, it's cool beyond belief. I am just so delighted. Hope you have a good weekend too Laura. I'll have to see how your Real Estate is coming along...knowing you, I'll bet very, very well.

Hi Debb, now the cool thing about this is that a super cool west coast eco-smart real estate agent found yourself in a post written by a talented artist and real estate agent on the east coast. How fun is that! Gotta love AR!

Good Morning Debb,

What a beautiful tribute to a great person on ActiveRain from a really great person who we all know and love on ActiveRain.

You are both to be admired for your talent and charm. Didn't she do a fantastic job! I just know you will be friends for life. And I would bet you both got your humble beginnings here on ActiveRain and your friendship has grown.

You have every reason to be proud! I find you both to be an inspiration. I also think that's one of Ellen's best Whale Tales too!

Keep smiling! You deserve it!

Patricia
