Beautiful detail Janet. I've been thinking about getting my wife to paint a couple of pens. She has that kind of painting talent, now all I have to do is build the talent to be able to make the pens [

Simply beautiful Janet,
That is a great combination of your turning skill and your detailed painting...<b>One of a Kind</b> has never been such an understatement to describe a pen like this...speechless!

Hi Janet,
I,m just speechless[:0]
Are you using regular arts and craft acrylic paint?
And how do you make it survive the finish or there is no finish over it?
My daughter is actually taking a course on small object painting, this could be a nice project for her.
Wow once again, superb work and design. You got a big 10 from me.

Janet,
Absolutely FANTAS-MA-GORICAL.
Is the paint underneath the finish? How did you accomplish it. Paint & finish?

So many questions and so little time [] I use acrylic craft paints (Folk art) and put 10-15 coats of CA glue over the painting to keep it protected for those wanted to know.
Have a great night everyone.

Truly beautiful, Janet! When are you gonna start make paint by numbers blanks so folks like me and Pete can play? []

Tell you what Billy, you come down here for a week and I will teach you how to paint flowers ok. (Pete, you can come too) It really isn't that hard just takes a steady hand and a big magnifying lamp and a lot of practice. That is why I put a complete finish on before I paint cause you can just wipe off your screw-up and start again if you have to.
Just let me know when you are coming []
I saw your motorcycle picture, you could do a road trip.

She could come too of course, she can hang out in the shop with us or she could hang out in the house and talk to my husband about computers or golf, I know he won't mind. [

My dear friend Janet;
It is with indescribable joy that I accept your beautiful gift. The knowledge that you used your precious time and abundant talent to make such a wonderful gift for me is deeply touching. This is certainly a gift that will be honored and cherished for all the days of my life. There is so much detail and colors that could not be captured in the picture. I'm absolutely speechless. Thank you so much Janet, you have made my month. I'm so happy that I literally have tears in my eyes.
