Lovely, Shepkatt! I also have a lot of carvings from around Micronesia and the Solomon Islands as memories of my dive travel - from little sharks and mantas carved from palm ivory nuts all the way up to "spirit carvings". They all have lovely memories, often associated with particular villages we visited from liveaboards. Mostly they depict sea life, but also some reproductions of Head Hunter canoe figureheads.shepkatt said:My husband, daughter and I do a lot of travel for scuba diving. We started collecting art wherever we go on trips years and years ago. So most of the art we have is specific to where we have been and has memories associated with that trip.

I am a sucker for impressionist art and have a numbered litho of Mischa Lenn's up in here.
It's called Joie de vive and I couldn't resist it.

and, i also have several icons, two of which i painted myself. they're used for religious purposes...not just to look at 'cause they're purty.
the end.
