I did this small [23 x 10 cm.] painting for the receptionist at work, who is doing her darnedest to get me booked with patients. It's a very slow time of year in dental offices. |

Other than the fact that I am not busy enough to keep body and soul and horse together, it is a fabulous office in which to work! As always, your comments are most welcome. |
