I like handpaints, some old freshwater lures were done by hand and the result, as your wife's work shows, can be really interesting. Takes talent though.

Don... I hope that your wife has autographed all of the lures she paints so they won't be confused with counterfeits forged from the scraps of wood you lose on the beach. (mike)
