Grace Church painting - George opens his gift

While I was making this little watercolor painting, I thought that for anyone who is really active with their church family a painting of their church could make a nice gift. And the same for newlyweds, maybe a painting of their first house together. And for a business owner, a painting of the office. And for someone who is into history, perhaps a local historical site or museum. This has a bazillion possibilities. Send me a note if your are interested in commissioning a little building portrait. Just FYI, George's church painting is watercolor on paper, about 5" x 7". And I also wrote about it on my art website, which I have finally updated.

I Love it. Great idea. I have something in mind, and I will eventually send you the picture. Also Bunny wants you to have copies of her pics if you'd like them. She took a zillion starfish. etc...

By the way, that light table that you gave me got some heavy use in this project. Thanks again!
