A friend wanted me to take pictures of the decorations I've made over the years. Though you all might enjoy seeing what I've painted or made.....

Merry Christmas to all!!!

Your tole painting is beautiful. I don't think it is called that anymore, but that's what I know it as. You home must be beautiful with so many special treasures in it.

You're right -- the name somehow changed to "decorative painting". And I do have a # of my oil paintings in the house, but not all that much! Seems I give away more than I keep!!!!

thank you, everyone!!!

I love your decorations, I use to paint about ten years ago but have not done anything recently. However your projects have got me thinking I should pull out the old paint brushes

Thank you everyone!!!

My friend also paints....we're thinking if cotton gets too expensive, we'll go back to painting..... :)

Dee, Looking at your work makes me wish I was still painting. I did it for about 20 years and have nothing but good memories about that time...seminars, conventions,the people, etc. I have given away most of my surfaces but can't part with the paint or brushes yet. Maybe your post will give me the boost I need. Everything was beautiful!!!

Glenda, my friend and I decided if cotton prices rise like they think, then we will go back to painting. I miss it, too!!! And I'm with you, I miss the seminars, gatherings, etc. I won't give up this forum...you'll just see pics of what we paint!! :)

Ileen 12-21-2010 09:03 PM
