For something different...


A lovely girl who I am aquainted with had the sad misfortune of suffering a broken ankle during her hockey game mere days before her 16th birthday :-(

Everyone was signing her cast, but I said I'd paint something....did you know that casts can either be plaster or fiberglass? This is fiberglass, quite bumpy not very absorbent. My acrylic paint needed some blowdrying help to set and dry, but we got it done.

A very patient girl now has a little painting of her favourite pet; pot-belly pigs!

Of course, afterwards, my husband pointed out that I should have painted little pigs on her toes too...
