This is the best I could do. It’s for my neighbor from my old house. She collected Elephants and was a strong good democrat.
I want to surprise her and mail it to her framed.

I’m so happy this is going to my old neighbor.
I miss them.
I got trumpers at the residence I live now.

I wish I had your painting skills! Do you lightly sketch out what you are going to paint first?
My niece loved art as a child and teen and took watercolor lessons. I don’t think she kept up with it though. She became a teacher and was able to do some art in her classes. Her job is a difficult one these days. I worry about her at times, but she has a wonderful husband and daughter.
