And here is the last one! Shar--this is the one that took me ALL 10 weeks of the class to complete. I just could not get the brick and stone to my liking.
This painting went to another couple that we were good friends with. The husband died long ago of complications from diabetes. The wife remarried and now lives in FL.

This is a tower in the massive wall that surrounds the "Old Tallin" of Estonia. It is called "Pikk Herman". Tallin is their capital. Latvia has the same kind of a thing. The inside of the wall surrounding "Old Riga". These "OLD" capital cities are where all the tourists spend their time--in the street cafes, the cobblestone, narrow streets, the old castles and buildings, etc. Go to the Baltics some day--NOT just to Spain or Italy or Germany or all the other, usual places.

OK! End of promotion.....
