This was
my first Oil Painting in a class taught by
Mertie Griffin.

I don't
draw, so most of the time I trace my patterns. Just because you
can't draw, you don't have to give up the fun of painting.

This was
my Brother, Bill, when he was 3 years old. He died of a heart
atack at 50 years old. My mother always loved this snap of him
made in 1929. The year he passed away, I painted her this picture
for Mother's Day.
|
She loved
the picture and kept it hanging in her living room. I entered
it in the county fair and won a blue ribbon.
|
A spot of
beauty on a dreary day.
|
I still
have this one hanging. It was the last one I did.
It was in
1981. After this, I moved on to china painting.

 |
I did this
when orange was popular in the 80's.
|
This one
is still in my kitchen.
