It's A Learning Experience |

I was requested to add more of my drawings and paintngs to my blog, so that is what this post will be about. I thought I would start with newer ones and also add some old ones. I drew this woman a few months ago, I based it on a character I had read about in a book by Jane Austen. (Not one of my favorites) This is a painting I did of our barn, of course it was before the rain started. I haven't had much painting weather lately. This is on of my more....cartoonie drawings I geuss. She is more like a book illustration rather than a drawing of a realistic person. This is a drawing i drew back in 2006 of my sister and friend's pigs. Reri and Black Pearl. This is a lion I also drew back in 2006 (if you couldn't tell by the drawing paper

Jan. 7, 2009 - Wow it's been a while...| I was out of a computer from the end of Sept. I think it was and just got it back on Monday! Boy did I sure miss it!!! I just LOVE Blogging! We have moved, but Lord willing it is only temporary! We have no heat but these space heaters I bought, no stove and no hot water, they are all petroleum gas and the pipes are bad and need to be replaced! I have no dryer so this is what my house looks like ALOT... ![]() and it was SO today that I thought our windows were going to cave in!!! But I have found a cute little 3 bedroom on 8.3 acres for $75,000-$80,000 And we are praying that God will open the doors for us!!! And it would HAVE to be ALL from God, cause my ex has ruined my credit and I can get no loan. So if God wants the girls and I to get it He will provide, we want to open our home to be a foster home, especially to down syndrome and/or mentally challenged children. PLEASE pray for us, for God to give us the money for this small, but needed {and wanted} farm!!! I would need a little extra, too, cause I want to expand it into another bedroom or two! There is a small bus here, I would like to purchase to drive all of us around, for $7,000. Plus I want to privacy fence ALOT of the land. Then some other kind of fencing for the rest...Well actually if God would just provide enough for the purchase of the house, I would borrow on it to do the rest, that needs to be done! And God is SO good and SO VERY capable of providing it, IF He wants it to be done! Now on to another note...I just realized the last time I posted was the day BEFORE I had Esther!!! WOW! Isn't that something? Well here is a picture of her now, at 3 months... ![]() Well I am going to get off here, but I will post again soon and if I can get all who read this to help me pray about the house, I would be so grateful. Also we are starting revival Sunday at our Church. So please pray for souls to be saved and heart's to get right! I will post some pictures of it after our revival is done! Good Night All, ~Christian Country Mama~ |
