All parents think their kids are amazing, right?! But sometimes my daughters amaze even me! These are a couple of the drawings they did while hanging out in the gallery with me. If they can do this at 8 and 11, I can only imagine how brilliant they'll be when they're grown up!
There was a Belly-dancing extravaganza happening in town, so Biggest Munchkin (who is 11, turning 12 in August) drew this beautiful dancer. I just love the movement she's captured, and the expression on the dancer's face...you can just see the music moving through her!
And a forest fairy by Littlest Munchkin, who is 8 (9 in July). Sightly influenced by a couple of Mummy's paintings, but all her own work, and just took my breath away!
I've decided not to do the exhibition in August, though I'd dearly love to. Just not enough time to do a whole new lot of work, I've just started a new part-time job, and we have some big plans for the next few months. So maybe next year, fingers crossed!
I think my body decided after the exhibition, "Right, all that palaver is over, time to go on strike!" So in the last week, I've had a migraine, got a cold sore, and a lovely dose of the flu as well. So it's Phlegm Central here at the moment. Sigh, I need a holiday I think!

Beautiful drawings!! The Forest Fairy has beautiful line quality and the eyes and nose simplifications remind me of Matisse, lovely. You GO girls!!
Your childrens' work is phenomenal! There is a freeing, beautiful, "wild woman" essence in both drawings. So beautiful.
I hope you feel better soon and get the rest you need.
Their drawings are beautiful! They have picked a talent from you for sure!
Runs in the family! Really nice.
