New Artwork

Artwork is a big deal at our house. Few things bring me more joy than crafting with the girls and their friends. But what is unique to Mark and our sweet girls is painting with acrylics on canvas. BRAVE MAN! It is a messy job, but the payoffs are GREAT!!

Isabella, an artist just like her Grandma Kay
Lisi ... and a color palette as unique as she is!

ummmm,well, I guess you outed me already. Here is my 'true confession'...I moved everything off the fireplace for the picture, and then had to stand in a strategic place as to not get 'clutter' in the photo. See, no need to covet,so you're good!
Glad you like the paintings!!
love yfc

I may need to commission the artists....especially before I can't afford them! Beautiful and a great idea.
