Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

Country Paintings

Mom came to visit, and each of us had some one-on-one time with her.  Eric got to show her some houses, the oldest took her to a cooking demonstration, our son enjoyed his favorite restaurant, and the youngest spent her day sick, unfortunately.  My time with Mom was painting at an art studio!






We each started with a blank canvas and a picture of what we were to paint.  The instructor did a fabulous job walking us through step-by-step of what to paint, how to mix the colors, and which brush and stroke to use.


The finished product was as unique as each student, but all could tell is somewhat resembled the original picture.  We shared lots of laughs, and compared each others flaws, but it was a fun evening!
