Trompe L'oeil Fishing Creel

Trompe L'oeil fishing creel




I just returned from a sweet job which included painting this fishing creel to help
conceal a hole left in the sheet rock where a thermostat had been removed.
I LOVE PAINTING TROMPE L'OEIL!
The homeowners are avid anglers and I used one of their old creels to study and paint.

My Grandson's Toy Box



My Grandson, Logan, wanted me to add this picture of his toy box that I painted for his first birthday.
It is an antique box that had been painted a bright neon pink.  Once the base color was selected and the pink covered, I chose to decorate it with a western theme as if it might
be a locker a cowboy would use.
Logan was born 7 pounds 11 ounces and was measured at 21 inches long.
I call him Lucky Parker.  And he is lucky!
