I made this necklace from reproductions of my sunflower painting. I plan to make some hair clips next.

A person from my hometown takes all kinds of photos of Wisconsin on his cell phone. He then will post them on facebook. I kept saying I wanted to paint them. His daughter contacted me wondering if I could paint one of his pictures for a Christmas present. I happened to be working on this one. I finished it, she liked it and got it for him for Christmas. They framed it. After he received the painting he posted this picture on facebook.

I did the Sunflower painting and have made reproductions of it. Now I am working with beads to make a necklace. I will show it to you when it is finished.

Not really ready for the video yet. I do want to share a video from Angela Fehr, a watercolor artist from Canada, whom has really inspired me. http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=angela%20fehr&qs=n&form=QBVR&pq=angela%20fehr&sc=8-11&sp=-1&sk=#view=detail&mid=94EB37ECF014D7AB170F94EB37ECF014D7AB170F

We tore our barn down this summer. Here is a painting of it as my husband remembers. I took a picture from the road and painted it. I did two paintings are they are both with family members.
