Here are a few sketches I did last spring in class. These two are basically the same design, but with different colors. And then the mangletre that I painted in the class I took last week. I really had no idea that I was painting in the same colors as the sketch I had done in class 3 months ago. I have a place to hang this at home next to the cupboard where I keep my iron. Do you know what a mangletre is? It's Norwegian.

Fiddlin' Around by Lois Mueller, VGM is a beautiful book full of beautifully painted violins! Lois first rosemaled when she painted for the Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestra in 2004. It was a prelude of things to come. In recent years, she has been commissioned to paint many violins in several different styles of rosemaling, some of which are shared in this book.
