Maria Robbins Originals! or We have an artist among us...

We are fortunate in the fact that we have so many talented folks in our group. We have Dar, who not only is a talented Glass Guru, but also a very talented crafter! We where talking the other day about her hand made craft items on eBay.


Then, there is our Kathy who sews every little girls dream blankets & so much more! I'm sure you'll recall she has items on Bonanzle also. (I adore the Disney Cars blanket.)



Now, we have an actual artist of the first water! I am proud to say I know Maria. She is one of the newer members of our group, OBS (Online Business Success).


I have not had the pleasure, until now, of actually LOOKING at Maria's work. Oh sure, I went and watched her Original Geranium Floral Impasto Florida; because I wanted to see her work. But , I was in a hurry so I watched it so I could come back to it later. I do remember thinking how pretty it was.


So, today, I went to eBay and checked up on my watched items. Then I decided to look at her other stuff...Oh my! How pretty! Now, since I have the inside scoop. I know of other places she sells, like etsy. So, I went there. Look how real this sunflower pic looks! It's a 12 by 15 gessoed panel, in oil.


These are just a couple of things by the very talented artists I am so lucky to call "friends". Thank you all for such wonderful contributions to this world of ours. I see gifts in my families' futures.
