"Budding Artists"
It always gives me great pleasure when I get to see my grandchildren. Today my daughter (my youngest of 4) came over with her 2 girls, ages 9 & 5. She left them with me so she could keep her Dr. appointment (she's expecting her 3d daughter early in Sept.) Those kids love to do art & sat at my kitchen table for an hour & 1/2 drawing from imagination as well as from the little stuffed animals & other things they had with them. I told my daughter they both already have an "artist's eye" for seeing & drawing shape & color. Years ago I taught adults how to develop an "artist"s eye". Some got it & some never did. I love to see what my grandaughters create. I almost always receive at least one of their masterpieces for my refrigerator. Today the younger one drew a cat & a dog. It was so much like a picture her mom did at the same age that I saved & still have hanging in the room my 2 daughters shared.
