for the love of art
This blog is for any mom or grandma out there, who received a piece of art or special handwritten card yesterday. Before you crumple up, tuck away or secretly stash your precious gift, consider treating it as a valued piece of art.
Here’s a piece my son did many years ago. Framed with IKEA, it takes pride of place over our bed (much to my daughter’s disgust). I like to think my legs are a bit better than he imagined, but he did get my hair colour right!
Here are some more shots to get you thinking about your own little Picasso’s….

Whatever you do, enjoy it. No other artist will paint for you with such love.
