Good thing for holidays,
I finally got some stuff finished that has been getting bumped over and over
Acrylics on 6' x 4'rock with attached MDO sign
 -

The Solar Gardens sign is constucted of Sintra lettering on faux stone made from pink foam. 5' x 2'
 -
Here is a close up of the faux stone
 -  -
Liberty Hunt Club - HDU ducks and lettering with imitation gold 4' x 2'
How long ago did I start this [Roll Eyes]
 -
Close up of carved Duck -

Holdfast Credit Union Reverse Glass Piece 24"x36"
I've been puttering with this one forever, I'm not overly happy with all of it, but it has some elements that turned out great - I promised to post it so here it is

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 [Razz] 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!

Top notch Kelly...you have been busy...and the bronze mirror in behind the holdfast glass piece probably looks pretty cool too even though it doesn't show up in the pic real well...have a great Holiday...Pat and Ruth.
