So, at least a week ago lamortefille, starbreeze, Ski, and I think some others asked to see Mom’s artwork. I said I’d do it the next day, but that didn’t happen because I was busy transferring stuff from my old XP laptop to my new Vista laptop and Vista has been disagreeable until just shortly. Anyway, I finally took pics of a few samples of her work. She does all sorts of things – papercut:
pen and ink:
miniatures (3.5×5″):
oils:
A few more are here.
This is about 1/50th of all the work around the house. If you want to see more, let me know. But these are a good sample.
I may remove the Photobucket album later, after everyone’s had a look, just so Mom’s work doesn’t end up stolen.Wow! These are truly great. Thank you for posting, and it’s a shame you have to worry about someone stealing it. Her horses are fabulous.
i can honestly say it even looks more awesome in real life 😉 was lucky enough to eyeball a few of those 🙂
(tell her she muuuust paint more! we need more artists like her 🙂 )Your mom does beautiful work! Is she a professional artist?
My favorites are the pen and ink horse heads and the “Chestnut Miniature.” Thanks for sharing.
Wow!!! No wonder you’re so talented!!! 😀
My favs: the Chestnuts minature, artwork #8 and the papercut. I can’t imagine how long the papercut must take!!! The detail is incredible!!!!
Her horses in both oil and pen & ink seem so alive. 😯
Thank your Mother for sharing her artwork with us. 😀

.She would not happen to want to part with this one, would she?? What would the cost be, and what are the dimensions? I love it.
Oh man, Ski, I’d have to ask. It’s not like we’ve got a lot of extra wallspace, so maybe she’d want to let it go…
The dimensions are about 19×22. I can’t measure exactly because it’s hung way out of my reach. But I’ll ask if she wants to sell it as soon as I can. She’s outside right now.Mimi: Yes, I guess you could call her a professional. She does a professional job. She kind of gave it up though, except for the occasional pen and ink, after having us five kids.
Bosky: I don’t know how to put a watermark on these and Photobucket can sell prints of the pictures. So that’s why I may remove them later.
I’m glad you all like her work so much. I’ll photograph a few more pieces tomorrow and share them.
Okay, Mom says she has prints of it. If you want a print, I can PM you contact info. If you want the original, it’s fine but she needs to think about the price. Let me know. 😀
Wow, those are all lovely! It must be wonderful living with a mom who appreciates and does her own artwork!!
Wow, A lot of those are really nice. I can understand why you would ask her opinion. I can see a lot of them hung on Ski’s wall. I really like the ones with the buildings.
