Christmas With Grandma, Page One -Paint Party Friday
I have been working on this lovely little book for quite a while now, and it is done! I am very happy with the results. When it becomes available online, I'll let you know. My friend who commissioned this project says all proceeds from book sales will go to a mission which helps people in Haiti. I love the idea of being a part of something bigger.
Above you see my reference photo for this page. Isn't my Friend darling?
Merry
Christmas and Happy Paint Party Friday, all you lovely artists and
truly wonderful people. May God shed His gift of light and joy in to
your lives this Holiday season. God bless you, dear ones--have a lovely weekend and thank
you for stopping by. ((hugs))
Congratulations on the completion of this noteworthy project. It seems like a labor of love and will be much appreciated by your friend and the people of Haiti.
Dear Beth , that you can draw and paint such a perfect replica of a photo is such a God given talent. Your work is so beautiful and what a great way to help others and raise funds. Happy PPF and a happy weekend too!

A midget who told me, when I was depressed about people making fun of me because we had no money and no new clothes and I was wearing everything second handed. He told me, "You are the only one in the world, make the most of it."

FILLS MY EYES...
When I see something unexpected, unusual, or beautiful, my focus suddenly sharpens and intensifies. The sensation tickles! That's when I say something "fills my eyes." It is the greatest compliment I can give.
My Camera and Me
I carry my camera everywhere I go. Here you see one of my Cloud Paintings. I find unusual shapes, faces, animals in just about everything, especially clouds. Often I am able to enhance or "paint" my photos so others can see what my imagination has revealed.
What an honor to be a featured artist for this wonderful webpage!

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I have not a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me Lord." -- Darlene Pringle, Artist
