Due to a recent death in my family I haven't done much artistically in the last month or so. I'm getting back into the creative mood, and will have things to post soon! I will share the roadside cross I painted to honor my cousin Jacob. Big thanks to my carpenter-in-training nephew Zech for building it for us. He's only 11!
