Art Show

Hope has done such a magnificent job in Art this year. I am really proud to report that she was a Featured Artist at her school's Art Show on May 14th. I was able to meet her Art teacher, Ms. Gabbard, when we attended and she praised Hope for working hard and vastly improving her talents. Hope drew the flamingo just for me as a Mother's Day present. I love it! I also love her self-portrait . It amazed me! Her landscapes are fun and have a folk feel to them. This really reminds me of my Grandma Rae, who is an artist and paints very similar to the way Hope did in the bottom left corner. You are such a creative artist, Hope!

Congrats Hope! I wish I could see those pics that are sideways. :( Ah well. I love the self-portrait.

Wow, Hope you are such a great artist! Keep up the good work. It is so good to see you doing something you love.

Sorry, about the sideways pics. I can't seem to figure how to post them not sideways. I'm open to suggestions on how to do that.

If you open the picture in MS picture viewer (I think that's right - it's the default computer program), there's a place where you can rotate the picture. If you rotate and save it, it'll store the right way and then it'll post whichever way you have it stored. I don't know if there's any way to post it not-sideways if it's sideways on your computer.

Good for Hope. Those are great pictures, and how sweet to do a flamingo just for you. Thanks for sharing them with everyone.
