Sweet Madonna

A sweet and sticky Madonna and Child done in gratitude for a friend's homemade jams and her sense of generosity in giving them away at the Salons. The halos were made from the flowered cloth jam jar lid covers and the painting framed and presented as a gift. The jams were much appreciated by everyone. Tomato and pepper jam, mmm - who would have thought?
