Motherhood

My sister shared a beautiful painting, and asked me to paint it for her.  

Virgin Mary, John the Baptist & the Child Jesus

St. John the Baptist was the cousin of Jesus. He preached
penance and baptism and the coming of the Jesus the
Messiah. He is the patron saint of baptism.

I used an old painting I got a garage sale(because canvas is sooooo expensive) I sprayed it with white primer paint, and good as new.

The original

Have a very happy and blessed Easter!

two little tables

 I have been having some fun, messing around with some paintings.

I found this ad and thought what a fun idea, a coffee, coffee table.

I am pretty pleased with the end results. I am just learning how to stain, I need some more practice.

Sorry the picture is so bad, I did not have my camera so it had to be done with my phone.

This is a table I picked up for a buck at a yard sale. My oldest son said he wanted a railroad table to use for his art projects. (he loves the railroad because his daddy is a signalman for the railroad) so we have a slight obsession when it comes to trains and railroads.

He found a picture by an artist name CJ Marshall he wanted me to try and do it on the table. So I thought I would give it a try. After many, many hours of painting and one sore back I finished. He LOVED it. 

Sorry again for the picture quality.

Have a Merry and Blessed Christmas Season.
