My friend Teresa

Teresa.....You were the most inspirational person I ever met. Your courage

love of life and positive attitude were incredible. The world is s dimmer place without you in it You have changed people's lives just by having met you.

Crown piece is mine :)

Just to clarify...I only made the piece with the crown on top!

Beeswax.....

I forgot to add that we covered the whole piece in beeswax....my first experience using wax.

LISA KAUS CLASS....

Took a GREAT class

with Lisa Kaus on

Sunday. She was an

excellent teacher! All

the color was added by

watercolor crayons and

graphite pencil...then we added any embellishments we wanted. Every edge is

painted on...even the bottom. The crown like topper I found at an estate sale..I think it is an old lightbulb surround. We also added collage elements.

I LOVED it!

My BIG GIRL DOLL

Here is one of mine.

I am not happy with her arms ...but I think "she" turned out pretty good. She needs a name...

any suggestions?
