Angela's Trinket Box




I decided to paint Angela's keepsake box with a country landscape of Ireland, because she likes Ireland, has visited there, and taken many beautiful photos there.
And then in the little country cottage beneath the knotted vines, roots and whatnot. I thought I would try to put a little portrait of Angela in there. She had this lovely photo taken in civil war era regalia for a calendar. She visits Gettysburg frequently and is a guest of the Tillie Pierce house, and just loves the history of the area. This is still very much a work in progress that will require more fine tuning.
