I am having so much fun learning to oil paint! My teacher is very encouraging with me and I am trying to learn a little patience while working on a project week after week. This just goes to show that you are never too old to learn something new. I am ready to start hanging my paintings up in the garage art gallery!

MOM! Your paintings are getting better and better. I am very impressed. They definitely should not be hung in the garage though. Do you think I could commission one? :)

Okay, so here's the story behind this. We were reading scriptures, in Corinthians, about resurrection and being called back to the Lord or something....It mentioned something about the trumpets of God welcoming you back to heaven, and mom broke out into the trumpet fanfare from some Handel's Messiah piece.
