Betty Pollard's Paintings
| Autumn Splendor
Betty says she painted this plate for an entry for an SOSPA show a few
years back. It is her original painting. The theme for the
show was "Autumn Splendor". She had several fires on the
plate, and on the last fire it broke in half in the kiln. (Image Size: 13K) |
