well over the last few years, since my children are a little older, I started goinig to and art class at a local craft shop!! The classes were also a great place just to escape from the house for a few hours! My first canvas ever and it won 1st prize in a local flower show!! Harvey my bunny! then I painted my friends dog for her 16th birthday!

They are all lovely, Gaile. I envy people with creative juices as I would love to be able to paint. The most I have been able to achieve is a cheating a little on part of the boys' Antarctic matrices at school, lol. Maybe I should find a handy art class and get out of the house Do you mean Harvey, the rabbit was the prize? ? Poor Harvey could have ended up with just anyone, if so.......lucky you won!
