Inspired by Aunt Kat

My sister sent me a picture of Abigail this morning. I looked at it and had to smile. She was so little. Who knew that her love of art would grow to be such an important part of her life.

Look at them...both very artistic. Thanks for the pic Kat!

Looking back at her first watercolor. She was barely 6.

Then she did this one for Miss Linda as a good-bye gift when we moved to Alley Bammy.

Now she can do this....First she put random watercolors on paper. Then she thought it looked like a duck. So she outlined what she saw. She amazes me.

First Grade drawing contest during Dr. Seuss week. Six elementary schools participated. She was thrilled to take first place!

On to pastels. She has decided she really likes using them.

Miss Bobbi likes her pastel work too. So when Miss Bobbi and her family left Alabama and moved back home Miss Bobbi left with this...her favorite color is green. We miss you guys!

She even did pastel Dobies for me!

And per request of her Aunt Jet, she did this one. It looks simple but this was done with a white piece of paper and a sharpie pen. It took a LONG time.

She did this one this Christmas with a pencil and markers.

And one of my all time favorites....

  3. Those pictures are really good! You should sign her up for Art lessons here in Dothan. I know there is a really good guy named Chris who teaches Art at West gate in an after school program.
