This is still a work-in-progress. I’ll post final images by the weekend. This is in a breakfast nook, next to a window. There’s not room for a piece of furniture like this, so this way they can have it all. No dusting, either!
Light switch will be a recipe box…

March 21, 2003 at 11:02 pm #1008680Wow – I like it, now I’ll have to take a look at your previous posts.
It's funny that how I feel about someone/something shows up in my paintings, when all I did was paint what I saw.
March 22, 2003 at 4:26 am #1008678WOW..I wonder how many people passing have bumped into this!! ao real and 3D…:clap:

March 23, 2003 at 2:18 am #1008675Ruth, your work is simply amazing. I have a question for you… when you do a mural that is only on part of the wall, do you just put the polyacrylic finish only on the paintined part? For instance, do you follow the outline of the painting closely? That’s what I am assuming you have done, but thought “heck, I might as well ask!”

Arlene, thank you, but I haven’t done the next one yet…

March 23, 2003 at 10:05 am #1008681Ruth this is stunning! I plan to visit SC and check out your work at Myrtle Beach. Not that far from me!
This is my type of furniture. Maybe you can do my entire house this way? Would save my furniture from my cat! Seriously your work is beautiful and the detail is amazing!!!:clap:

I should have had you paint my new couch and love seat….it would have saved me a lot of $$$ and I would have had a laugh each time someone tried to sit down!:clap:"Until you make peace with who you are, you'll never be content with what you have."
March 24, 2003 at 4:18 am #1008684WOW! This looks so much work, how long did it take? Every little bit looks so real!

Hmm… maybe I could put one on flat canvas and just hang it up…..
Thanks for sharing!
