When looking at the quality of the pictures, you should know it was before I ever heard of a digital camera or a computer. These pictures were simply for my records of what I had completed.
I had so much fun!!!

I have always loved flowers and was a pretty good gardener and was always planting, pruning, weeding. The plants I painted are the ones I had in the yard. While the style is "Folksie" I tried to be botanically accurate.http://paintpartyfriday.blogspot.com/2011/07/paint-party-friday-week-20-check-in.html

I love how you termed that,, folksy but accurate,, perfect!
Aw-w-w! I did all that stuff, too! And furniture. I painted all over shelves and all sorts of things. Then I started doing murals on people's walls! That was fun! And profitable!
I love your treasures!
Beautiful!1
I love the wash tub with the funky crows!
These pieces are all really beautiful. Love the fun crows on that old tub, really made me smile.
Very cute! I love the birdies!
Beautiful work! Hugs, Valerie
WOW Peggy, what fun indeed., Simply stunning work too and a beautiful resulting piece.
Have a lovely weekend

Beautiful. It is so much fun to paint on different surfaces! :-)
The tub with flowers is amazing. It's fun to revisit items we crafted in the past isn't it. I keep saying I'll go back to my stained glass work but there is so much more to learn with other mediums that I doubt I ever will. It is interesting how we evolve.
I LOVE the tub with the flowers- simply gorgeous!
The COPPER TUB and CHAIR are both wonderful! HAPPY PPF!
I´d love a tub like that!
All beautiful pieces...I'm sure the lucky recipients will be sooooo happy! Great job! POP ART MINIS
That's a really original idea - I'd never have thought of gardeners as potential commissioner customers! The flower bouquets you paint are wonderful.
I love the colors of the flowers set against the copper tub... Beautiful!

I love tubs, such wonderful works of art you've created.

Peggy, your garden art is really, really good. I bet your things were in great demand. Your flowers are surely identifiable, unlike many that I make. I love the morning glory, especially.
I really like what you have created with these normal items to make them so individual ;0) the crows are my fave they really remind me of those from Dumbo :0)Dxx
The crows made me laugh, they have such great personalities, and the flowers are really lovely.
Oh these are wonderful!!! What a fun idea! I adore the washtub birds, such character! Deb
