I'd forgotten all about the courter's candle, but your sketch brings it back. Great job on the bell and the woman too.

I agree with Jocelyn, I think shoppers would snatch those up at the local arts and craft show!

It was a wonderful experience visiting the plantation and capturing my memories in sketches and watercolor. <br /><br />Jocelyn - no I haven't sold any of my sketches before. They are all bound in my sketchbook for a trip to New Orleans last fall. I've toyed with the idea of making cards or bookmarks out of some of my images, but I haven't pursued that yet. <br /><br />Thanks for visiting!Claire Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10422062718551034294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7596325387656318047.post-33400073422954885992012-10-16T21:55:45.641-07:002012-10-16T21:55:45.641-07:00Hi there.
