St Philomena- for Eden |
This reminded me I had never done a complete post on the birthday saints I have made through out the year for our family.
I have mentioned before how much I love this craft and really that is good because have no real artistic ability at all.
I usually print out the image of the saint, or it could be any other person and use this as a guide to the colours and objects I want to feature. Sometimes this is hard and they do not turn out exactly how I want them to.
I am really enjoying painting my figures for the exchange and writing the story for them as well.
I have other plans for painting, that I am most keen to start as well, and I really do recommend this craft for even the most craft challenged or art challenged like me. It is quite addictive!!
So here are our saints so far since April 2010
