More Art

Not to be outdone, Abe has come through with his art.

According to Rachael this picture is:

"Abraham’s view of a family breakfast ( marker pen on chipboard ) – Jonathan,Lily & me at the kitchen table one Saturday morning."


Regarding our windmill/insulator picture ~ sorry we can't get a windmill to you Jonathan. We actually bought that in Arizona a year ago for $6.00.....guess that would be about 3 pounds in UK money. If you lived in the states we would have gotten one for you. I think we brought back about 10 of them for different friends and relatives. Unfortunately, about once a year your Dad has to repair all of the ones of friends and family close by. The tiny windmill was a gift from my brother about 30 years ago to remind me of my home state of Nebraska. The log, of course, has the USA and the UK insulators attached to it.

Thank you Jacqueline for your kind words regarding the paintings! After posting them it makes me think that I should try again to paint some time this summer. Always thought I would like to set up an easel outside and paint the scenery.

Insulators and Paintings

Below are pictures of two telephone insulators attached to a log....the bottom insulator is from USA. The top insulator is from UK. When Tony and I were in UK last fall, I saw the UK insulator wedged in a telephone pole near where Jacqueline and Terry keep their motorhome. Jonathan was able to get it unattached from the pole for me. I just wanted Jonathan to know that his efforts were not in vain.

It may not be Vincent van Gogh or Claude Monet but these pictures of Jacqueline's water color paintings are very good. I think the deal is that if I post these I have to add some of my paintings also....so here goes.

Sharon's paintings using water color and acrylics

Any other artists out there in the Singleton community....send pictures for me to post. It looks as if Jacqueline's lessons are paying off. Great job.

I still need some answers to the questions I sent to everyone ~ Mike, Becky, Tara, Nathan.

These are the questions:

Relate your happiest memory as a kid.

Where did you go swimming?

Tell a favorite memory of your father (In honor of Father's Day in June) :-)

Tell about a bike you had.

Tell about your first very own car.
