Hopefully, they will continue to make her giggle. :) $155 http://saritastardesigns.wordpress.com/2008/07/25/riding-turtles/ I was so excited to make this wall hanging! My stepmom commissioned me to do this for my dad, who is also an artist. :D It is 36"x23" and just looked amazing hanging on my wall, lol. $200 http://saritastardesigns.wordpress.com/2008/07/18/grand-canyon-wall-hanging/ This beautiful coral reef was probably my most detailed work so far.
