Allow me to brag about my mother for a brief moment.

FOR THE WAUSAU TIMES
My Mom, Jane Dovenbarger, has always been an avid lover of all things art and has herself been a talented amateur artist for years, specializing in oil painting.
Years ago as she began to have children, she set aside her love of painting to focus on raising her family along with my Dad. Finally, after forty years (!), my mother decided to pick that paint brush up and took to her easel once again, and hasn’t put it down since.
That was one year ago. My mother is 90 years old.
I’d like to share some of her lovely paintings created in the past year. I hope you enjoy them!
