She knew what I liked>>>
Sorry guys a fast and dirty photo, I don't have a light box set up right now.
Just had to share a pic of these "home-made' or hand-made' dinner plates I received as a Christmas present. Yes there are some errors, but she's not a WIS and these are hand drawn and painted. WISHING EVERYONE A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

If you want my honest opinion I'd say the details on those plates are quite amazing, especially given the fact that they're hand made!
