Black Grapes
Today it's black grapes ~ just because they were my Dad's favorites. He was a grape lover, and the black ones especially, because they reminded him of the "old country". He drew colorful word pictures about the grape vines hanging in the late afternoon sun, over the doorway. The grapes were warm from the sun, the table was set outdoors with a white cloth for supper. It was a family time...
(The Black Grapes painting will be entered on eBay.)

First, just a few lines regarding my painted stuffed bears, Lamplight Bears,and then on to the new Lamplight Miniature Paintings. The bears are beanies, and also include dogs and cats. After selling many hundreds of them on eBay during the past 6 years or so, I've lost count, but have kept photos of some of my favorites, one of which is pictured here (Fancy Pants). They are all original designs, hand-painted in dyes applied with small brushes. The paintings are lightly diamond-dusted for sparkle under the lamplight ~ and I have loved doing them all. I will continue to do them! (To see my painted beanie album site, click here:
