elephant


6x6


I have had this creamer for years- it is one of my favorites... While painting it though, I couldn't help but think about my dad.  Maybe it's because of the "elephant wisdom," maybe it's because my dad's ears were always very large and pendulous...  I don't know.  But my little elephant really makes me miss him....

to market




















6x4


One of my favorite toys ever.  My husband picked this up in Nebraska for our daughter.  It's one of those that when you pull back on it and then let it go, it takes off across the floor.  So we have a bunch of these types of cars.  We have races.  And I have to say, this little truck with the three little piggies can really hold its own against the mercedes AND the porsche.
