The Best Art Ever

I post my "art" on the Lines, Dots and Curls blog, but I had to brag on my girls' talent here! With a few days off of work, I've had the chance to paint and both of my girls asked if they could join me at different times.

Porter first. Porter has observed what I've done in the past and made it her own. Before she wrote on this one (with fancy letters...my hand did not touch this canvas) she wrote out John 3:16 in its entirety from heart before deciding that it was kinda long and that she would just write, "For God so loved the world".... She asked to paint this piece for a friend's birthday present.


Betsy saw Porter's and asked to paint. With a completely different style, she asked for brown, blue and gray. I told her that I didn't have any gray and suggested some sparkly silver. She got excited about that and also asked for pink. When I asked her what she had painted, she said, "It's the sun...when...it's ..." I inserted, "Setting?" And Betsy replied, "Yes. Sunsetting." This is a present for her Meme's birthday.


Should my ability to relate to their art style have something to do with my ability to understand their personalities, this may be a preview to the challenges in my future. My inability to paint as freely as Betsy has a lot to do with why I was an art minor, not major!

I'm so proud of them both! Here's a new favorite photo of mine...my artists and me!
