Olivia Thomason has created one of the most original art projects seen in recent years: Painted Flower Pots. Flamingos, Puppies, Daisies, Kittens and College Football appear on terra cotta pots.

Each pot is different and signed. And, they are popular. "Magnificent gifts," says Marie Jenkins, a retired school teacher and longtime admirer of Ms. Thomason.
