The Final Week...

I have really enjoyed this challenge, but I have to say it got pretty tough the last few days. That's the way challenges should be, right?

For Day 22 I pulled out an old photo I had saved of my daughter Sarah when she went on her backpacking trip through Europe. This particular photo was taken at the train station in Brugge, Belgium...

And I skipped a couple of days, but here is my last painting...Tandem. My daughter Sage told me I needed to make some cards that would be suitable for weddings...
