Two turtles:


Mr. Frog (His grin is W-A-Y bigger than it's supposed to be. I used the wrong varnish, and it made only the white paint run. The only way I could fix it was to make the mouth area huge. I'll be making another one of these guys with a better mouth later.)


One of the many bees that "fly" about (they actually sit on larger rocks or in and around the edges of pots of flowers.

O Carol, you are one talented lady. I like the big grin on the frog.....and all the rest. Your turtle is perfect!
