there is nothing like a grandpa to lift the wings of two budding artists...
me and my little creative sidekick...aka...my 10 yr. old daughter micah...
took our painting skills outside while the weather is nice here in utah.
we layed out a huge roll of paper across my dad.s front walkway and had at it.
we only had to contend with a few ants, several spiders
and a small furry critter who paused on his way to see what we were up to.
the land here is as green as i.ve ever seen it
and the colors jumping off the flower beds are radiant.
it wasn.t hard to find inspiration all around.
i love how micah wanted to know the names of all the flowers she painted.
i, on the other hand was quite happy making up my own names for things.
my little mind figured that if they don.t have real names,
then it.s easier to paint them because they can be whatever
you want them to be and it will never look wrong.
that.s one of the beauties of art...
{notice how i snuck in some of my art work..see..i told you i was going to set sail again}
