  4. There is something about your art that takes me directly back to my childhood in the 1940's and 50s. Perhaps it reminds me a bit of our READERS Dick and Jane, not sure. But i love it. Thanks for the memories. Just really really delightful. HPPF.

  5. Thank you for your comments I have had fun playing with these flowers! The bouquet gets around. I love vintage childrens books as well and find them an inspiration.

  10. very cute... always thought it would be fun to be able to wear a dress of your choosing rather than the uniforms we have here in Australia... having said that uniforms make it easy to get them ready... great painting as always...xx

  13. This is really nice. Love detail, the face is so lifelike, the bouquet also casts a metaphoric illustration of polka dots as well, great example also on the dress, blue and white, perfect for summer. Thanks
