tulips for susan
My mother-in-law, Susan asked me to paint pictures for her. She loves tulips, and she has a golden yellow, sage and a light purple throughout her home. I really tried to match her colour scheme. Painting is fun, and really relaxing for me. I enjoy it.

I am blown away by jackson's recent art burst. Honestly I know he is my son, but I can brag: he is amazing. He is only 4. He beams when I tell him he is an artist. Isn't that what parents can help with, see what their children's giftings are and build them up?! There is already enough discouragement they will face in reaching their dreams, I am just happy to be a part of the enabling process. It is also fun that he enjoys several of the things that I enjoy (so far, art, animals and reading).
