Bridge Painting completed ~ Along the way~

Anita... Meet me under the tree, the grapes are for you.. teehee......

You may notice I added a few elements to the painting that were not in the photo.. A quite place under the tree. Good book, sunhat and basket of grapes for a little snack.. Oh... flowers of course.. I just had to add a few... Sit with me awhile and enjoy the quite sound of nature.. I hope you have enjoyed my interpretation of this beautiful place.. You may view the photo Anita so graciously shared with me on my last post below... She passes Minnehaha creek, (located In Edina, Minnesota ) each morning on the way to her little school.. As I mentioned before, if it were me I would never make it to school... Who could resist resting awhile....

I hope you have enjoyed viewing.

Blessings,

Penny

My inspiration... Along the way

Last year Anita of Castles Crowns and Cottages was so kind to share this and many other beautiful photos that she had taken.. If I remember correctly she said she passes this beautiful bridge on the way to work each morning.. I would never get where I was going if I came upon this beautiful place.. I would park my car, take off my shoes and sit under that tree. If you would like to enter a world of beauty please stop in and see Anita...

This was my inspiration for a painting I am working on.. I hope to have it completed soon and would like to share it with you.
Blessings,
Penny

Please meet Pippi Sculpted by my sister Connie

My sister Connie loves Pippi Longstocking as I am sure many of us do. This is her interpretation. She has been handsculpted with a mix of polymer clays over a strong wire armature. Her eyes were hand made by sis... I believe Connie said she stands 10" tall.. I wanted to include a few photos of WIP.. She has many layers of clothing and look at her pretty little sculpted Mary Jane shoes.

I just had to share this little one with you.. I hope you enjoyed viewing.

Blessings to all

Penny
