Added a decorative painting
I added a decorative painting to the article. I wasn't super happy with the clouds but it was the second painting I had done in about 30 years. I used to paint little things when I was a teen. I still paint once in awhile but lately I've been trying to learn how to reborn dolls.Mary Ash 06:04, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
