Mom's Artwork

Since Saturday was my mother's birthday, I thought I'd pay a little tribute to her here today. Over the years, my mother has done many crafty and artful things and painting, at one time, was one of them. My walls are adorned with several of her pieces of work and I thought I'd share her talent with you...


This single rose was a source of inspiration many times over for my sons to practice their drawing techniques.

This one she did from a photograph of my sons when they were small...

These colors are so bright and happy...


And another parrot...

She's very talented, don't you think? Now she pours all of that creativity into beautiful, custom made quilts. I'm so proud to be her daughter!
