Hi all, thought I'd share this.
My Mother is into her 80s now. She is a skilled and accomplished artist who has created many great works over the years and I'm arguably her biggest fan. A few weeks ago I sent her a collection of images I took at my mine last year. I asked her to create a piece themed from these pics if/when she had time. I was stunned to receive this in the mail today! She is skilled at several mediums; Batik, Oil, and Water-color primarily. I didn't know what to expect and had forgotten that she also likes to paint on antique saws, canoe paddles, and old skillets.... she really surprised me with this one!
This captures the moment very well and makes me feel like I'm there on a nice summer day.

The skillet is about 20" diameter. Thanks Mom, I love you so much.
