In reality, pirates rarely buried their treasures. In fact, there is only one known incident on record of such an event. Also, there is absolutely no existing evidence of any buried treasure maps, ever.  Bummer, hugh? Sorry to break this news to you here, especially on "Talk Like A Pirate Day". That really be making me blood boil. Arrgh! Anyway, Happy "Talk Like a Pirate Day" to all ye land lubbin' buccaneers!  

I did remember to take a few in-progress shots while a workin' on this here paintin' though.






With me Jolly Roger flyin' high, Yo-ho-ho, shiver me timbers, I bet ye'll not be wonderin' what Cp'n Happy an' this salty landlubber lass be up to tonight! Aye! Time for a big pocket of Rye and a song or two!  ARRRRGAH!!

Legend: Pirates often used colorful language such as 'Arrrgh' and 'Ahoy Matey'. It probably isn't true, but it sure is fun to spend a whole day talkin' like 'em!
