Some copied from originals and others I created.
As a little girl I loved to draw, but never had the confidence to continue, until one day as an adult, I decided to try again. Even now I find it difficult to paint/draw things from my own imagination, but I'm pretty good at copying.
I visited the Smithsonian in DC many years ago, where I watched university students copying masterpieces. I learned it was a requirement for the class, and since then I've not felt bad about doing the same thing.
It teaches me about color, composition, shadows, and shape, etc.

I love this, Penny. Isn't it amazing what a little idea can turn into ~ I'm so happy that I asked you if you'd be interested in doing something for me. There will be a little something coming your way in return, aside from the spring rolls I owe you ;)

That is so amazing :) you really are great. I cannot paint, I'm much too messy.
