Creations of a Vivid Imagination

This page will be dedicated to some of the pieces of art that I create.  Most of the pieces that I do are one-of-a-kind as for some reason, I cannot duplicate things! Please keep this in mind if you order a piece..some might have already been sold.  I can create something "close" to the original but there will always be subtle differences..personally, I think this adds to the appeal of a piece of art since you will not have one just like your neighbor!  A lot of the pieces are what I call "recycle art" since I am one that hates to see things just be tossed in the trash.  I still hear the words of Grandpa telling me to "Save that..you never know when you might need it!".  So, I save everything!  Other items are created solely as art..such as the gourds, ceramics and crocheted pieces.  Check back often..you never know just what you might find on this page!  Thank you for taking time to peruse the page!  If you are interested in any of the pieces please feel free to contact me at   bayoulady39532@gmail.com
