Completed Inspiration




I've been delving into all kinds of artsy projects as of late and am enjoying it very much so.  The photo above (although not great due to lack of time in taking a proper one with returning to work this week), shows a couple of magnets and a glass pendant.  Looking forward to doing more special projects with the Christmas season just around the corner.


A week ago Sunday, I had challenged myself to paint one of Beatrix Potter's illustrations.  Above is the completed piece and I'm quite happy with it.

I do hope this unexpected and delightful inspiration continues and that I can find some way to bless others around me and in my life with it.

In the meantime, I'm really missing my father tonight. Tears.

    Oh, this glass pendant is gorgeous. Would you mind sharing with me via email how you make these??? And the magnets as well? That would help my projects too! Thanks. Thinking of you.

    Sure can, and it's oh so easy. :) It's getting late here (and snowing) so I'll do my best to get to it Wed or Thurs.

    Hugs!

    & Lori V - Don't those pendants look lovely? Thank you again for the artwork on those and I still plan to donate a good portion of the proceeds to a children's foundation and domestic violence. :)
