Wow, wow, wow Kelly!! You should have posted each one seperately. I want to know something about every one of them!!
Those tractors look great! I assume you painted them on-site How long did it take?
That faux stone is just the coolest thing!! I'll be really curious to see how the foam holds up for you. I betcha it gives alot longer life than you are expecting!
Those mallards turned out really, really great!! You hadn't painted them yet when we were at Unity. Very nice!
Your glass piece is also very nice. They had to be thrilled with that!
Wow, you should have some nice cheques all coming in that you can spend on your holiday..er, I mean business trip!!

Whoa Girl,... you do deserve a vacation! I love the faux rock ... and the water effect behind the ducks looks terrific, as do the ducks.
That's some intense work there. All done very well. I'm cringing as I think of how the heck you did that skinny black lettering in sintra!
Now relax so you can come back charged and bash out a bunch more killer stuff!
