Painted rocks
For all you ladies who paint on rocks or just paint on different mediums. These are so cute. Wish I could paint like this.

Good friends are like stars...You don't always see them, but you always know they're there.

Ohhh, are the penguins and owls ever cute. I'm like you Jean not much of a painter. By the way how did your wedding favors go? TFS Liz

I painted such an owl. I looked in all the files & albums in my computer & couldn't find a picture, so I took one today. I also found that I didn't sign & date my art work. Bad me, bad me. So, here is the little guy. I gave him rather large feet. LOL

What's wrong with me??? I said 'owl', but meant to say Penguin! Old age, I guess!

Kathleen, your penguin is so cute!

Here is a turtle I did for a friend who collects them.

i used to paint houses and store fronts on rocks...had them through out my garden... but the weather has taken most of the paint off... I also did one that was flat... it said "Turn Me Over" and when you did that... it said " Aww That Feels Good!" lol... Had a bunch of those...placed them here and there...

Rainee,
Your turtle is looking so happy. Don’t those ‘lights’ in the eyes make them look so much better?
Gourd Silly,
I saw a rock like that once. I love the idea. Do you paint or wood burn on gourds?
Ginny,
Thanks for the compliment.

Kathleen, thank you for the kind words. My friend was surprised and happy with the little critter.

I love the turtle...but i love GREEN... also love penguins...

I've got some time so, i'm heading to check pinterest out...

I've tried wood burning on gourds, but i don't have the even flow for it. i may have a pic of them...i'll find it.. haven't tried since tho. Mostly paint them. Easier fix if I mess up and I DO!

Hey Granny,
If you were here I would teach to paint! Girls love the turtle and the other animals.
Come on down Granny I am only a few states away.

Donna...wish I could come down. If I remember right, my nephews don't live that far from you. Maybe this summer I might get brave and venture out.
