Hey Granny I am so thrilled to "meet" you - we are sisters..thanks so much .. I know we have a permanent bond now...

Oh, boy, the world will never be the same again. Don't forget Ladybug. The three musqueteers, or should I say, Scraperteers!

You suppose we're scaring the rest of the bunch here?

I am just blowen away by you art.
It is so beautiful. I would love to see your whole house.
You truly made my day. I just can't get enough of your art.

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for your kind and complimentary encouragement... I must get around to posting some of the other stuff I did .. just never get enough time.. Granny Ladybug and I are still flat out workingh up a storm soon to be released .. so these days I dont get to even pick up a paint brush ..Digital scrapbooking is the outlet and satisfaction for my artistic desire at the moment. But One day I intend to introduce some real life art to scrapbooking as backgrounds and as embellishments so its nice to know there is someone who likes my work..thanks again

Moonbeam - I must echo what everyone is saying! Your Murals are absolutely Fabulous!!! You are quite an artist. I like to paint also, and acrylics, and I will paint wood, tin, saw blades, just about anything! But my favorite is to paint landscapes of water, mountains, cabins, deer, etc... But I don't paint anything like you do!! But it makes me want to pull out all my paint stuff again! I hope you will show us more of your talent! You are an inspiration to me! Thanks so much for sharing!

[Moonbeam]

Thank you MNToots,
I'd love to see some of your work too... hope you post some.. I have never tried watercolour or oil but one of these days I'd love to try it..I have only ever done acrylics..
these murals were my feeble attempt to combine folk art with trompe L'oeil...but if you want to se what a real trompe L'oeil artist can do check out Ron Francis' work
