I was inspired and broken hearted by the two "Gold Star" moms I met at the memorial. I decided to add the necklace as a tribute to them and ALL "Gold Star" moms... God bless everyone one of you.

April "Paint Out" was PRIMO at the Beirut Memorial!

We had a GREAT time at our paint out last Sunday... the weather/location was PRIMO! We missed Karen and Patsy but enjoyed Penny and Olivia joining the ranks! Olivia had a blast... in fact... I didn't know how much till I posted these photos and realized she was in half of them!

Finished works... here...

It was so neat to see the artists set up in various locations throughout the memorial site painting a variety of scenes. Pictured below... Olivia, Mitchell, and Pat painting away!

I know we originally set the date for April 6 but we had to change it since the 6th is the date for the Onslow Art Society Spring Art Show's reception. Most of us will have work in that show and will attend the reception.
