I've always held a particular fondness for the Amish in my heart. My favourite paintings of all time are the ones of the Amish children done by Nancy Noel. I know this one I have done here today comes nowhere near what she has done, but I still get a very tender feeling about it when I look at it. I think I may do some more Amish ones. I kind of like the way it turned out, especially when paired with the scriptures. What do you think?? Any constructive criticism is much appreciated!
This is my week's entry into Paint Party Friday. Why not hop on over to the Paint Party blog and check out all the other lovely entries. They are a very talented bunch of gals!
Thanks for looking!

It's so charming! When I was little one of my favorite books was about an Amish girl, and this reminds me of that beloved book.
