This painting shows an old woman sitting quietly in front of a candle. Her hands are folded on her lap. The candle’s flame is small, but it lights up her face and part of her shawl.

This is my cute vampire doll. She was made by Dollmore. She is sporting a pretty outfit with lots of nice patterns. I hope that the photos I take of the cutie make you smile.

She’s got a simple outfit, a tool in her hand, and she's looking up at something you can’t even see. That something is the lark. There’s no bird in sight, but the title says it’s there,...
