Our Family Art Collection

A lot people know Mike grew up going to art shows; when we got married we started going to a few and I learned to love art. My favorite kind is glass, Mike likes sculpture and painting, but likes all kinds. We decided to start our own little collection...go figure that that a lot of it is Jim's pottery. Mike is so proud of his dad and is so partial when it comes to who is the best potter. Mike always checks out the paintings at D.I.

It helps that he knows many of the local artists and that his parents can wheel and deal for him.

Mike had this plate made for me. So the frogs represent us. This one is by Johnny Hughes

I couldn't read the name on this one but it is handmade it has a lot of different kinds of stones and beads in it.

A water color painting by I also could not read the name on this one.

This painting was actually found at DI by my husband I almost died when he brought it home. I thought it was so ugly. It had a really ugly frame on it. I took it off and found its beauty.
It's by Rehle E Higham
