Odds and Ends ... More Odd than Anything Else!

The photos came up in reverse order. However ...
I took this and the one below of Fat Bastard [her favorite] to take in when I visited my aunt. She is still in the hospital - hopefully set free today!

Hoping for a raisin ...

You KNOW I made some touch-ups - can't resist. It's signed, and cropped to about the size it will be when mounted on the cradled frame. [still waiting for the wood stain to dry]

This one is done, too, and will also be mounted on a cradled frame and varnished.



While waiting for the stain to dry, I've been playing around with some landscapes.  Both are renderings of La Specola observatory in Padua, where Galileo made some of his brilliant, paradigm-shattering discoveries on our place in the solar system.

Thank you for dropping by, and your comments are always most welcome!
