     This particular sign is an indirect inspirations from my mother after I received a booklet that was made for me from the "Experienced Ladies".  This book is from those ladies who have had "experiences" as being married and were more than welcome to share some wonderful pieces of advice to me while I was then the "Bride-To-Be".   My mother's advice was one of my most favorite of those pieces of advice that she wrote to me.   she plainly wrote a very small amount of writing, "Think Positive" and "Philippians 4:4-8".    I worked on making that cursive-styled writing so much like hers since she still has that beautiful flow in her hand-writing.  This advice and my mother's hand-writing style is why I am so inspired to make this sign.

"Cattle-lac" (Sign)

 

    Here is a sign that I enjoyed doing about a few years ago, and it is called "Cattle-lac".
It is called that name because of people who own or have owned any model of Cadillac
El Dorado convertibles and have them decorated with long bull horns on the hoods  in
addition to adding magnetic cow spots on their cars.  The scenes of these owners decorating
their Cadillac convertible in this particular style have been quite a fascination to me.  From
their decorating their Cadillacs have turned their cars into "Cattle-lacs" have really inspired me
to create this particular sign.
