This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

My great aunt does this too! She paints all sorts of things on rocks and then scatters them on walking trails. She also occasionally gets commissions to paint dogs that recently died
I was gifted a beautiful painted rock from a nurse who had been helping me for the few months I was in hospital. She gave it to me as a present for leaving. Wonderful lady
I feel terrible about laughing, but in the context of painting rocks, the mental imagery of painting dead dogs genuinely made me chuckle. What does she paint onto them?
Lol ok I wasn't really thinking about how I phrased that. She paints a portrait of the dog on a rock
I just feel sorry for the hikers who stumble across a trail of emulsion-daubed former pets.
