Goal: Create one piece of art each day for 365 consecutive days

My grandma had hung proudly all of the art I have given her over the years – good or not so good. Yesterday the paintings, along with some photos and other fun stuff, were laid out for all of us to peruse and take if we wanted.

It was great to see old photos and read things my grandma had kept. It was also interesting to look over work that I had completed such a long time ago. The family took most of the paintings, but I held on to one – an old water color rose that I had given Grandma. She loved roses. I didn’t keep it because I was attached to it, but because I thought it was pretty darned bad and could be greatly improved upon. I inked it up, giving it a bit more interest and energy – definitely an improvement from the original.
