SF and Pineland Artwork and gifts
Gents, after years of subversion I have been able to convince my mom who is an artist to get into painting memorabilia for the regiment and Pineland as well.
Her designs are Renditions of Originals with a vintage twist. There are a good deal of the posters in circulation already through out the school house and other corners of the area complex, but I'd like to spread the word further. She's really worked hard her entire life and just never seemed to catch that "break". I'd like this to be something that earns her some residual income while paying homage to the regiment.
She is currently working on other group flashes with the regimental Crest as well, they just take a while.
If anyone is looking for gift ideas or just something to hang on the wall in your man cave, your support would be much appreciated, even if you can only pass the link on or favorite the shop, still appreciated.

Any questions, feel free to private message me or contact her through her site.

Your Mother is indeed quite the artist! As a person who makes things with his hands I can appreciate the time involved in her work. Her prices are more than reasonable. I will seriously mull over making a purchase.

Your mother does some very nice work. I may have to buy one to hang in my "Woman Cave"

I just showed my wife. I want two of them (not "two" wives - perish the thought - but two items on there).

Awesome! Thanks and a "Go Mom!" back to her.
When I was a kid (and everything but real life was in B&W) friends wanted to be cops, firefighters, etc. I always thought that going into the woods with some little people & coming back out with a Bn of light infantry to kick a dictator's ass was the most noble thing on the planet. (Actually, still sounds like a good idea...)
A PRF flag is coming my way; couldn't 'resist' - can go right above the vintage Sov' TRA & restricted area signs.
Thanks again so much for the "subversion" of your Mom, lol.

Extra picts
I thought you guys might like looking at these things my sister made for me about 20 years ago. Somehow she took a print from a T-shirt I acquired plus some other stuff I had laying around and engraved them in a mirror somehow and put this ensemble together and gave them to me for Christmas one year. Some things aren't up to specs, but beggars can't be choosers and I was appreciative. Just another route a guy could take for heirlooms. Inn the transferring and uploading the got smaller for some reason, but you get the idea.

I think that's pretty special and that she did a real nice job.

Very cool! (I'm a walking example of why we should be grateful to have people with artistic bents walking the planet.)

These are great! I've always had an interest in the Jedburgh teams and there aren't any good posters online.

Thanks for the support guys. I really appreciate it. Mom has spent years upon years upon years painting different odds and ends that never really seemed to take off or hold any kind of longevity. I'm hoping that by getting into the realm of military Heritage, with a focus on the Special Forces regiment, she can set things up to where it will provide her some residual income as she gets older, and maybe someday.....actually retire.

Favorited the Shop Mills.
Nice work. I'm thinking she'd easily be able to turn a 1st Group flash/crest to a 10th Group version
