Thank you!

Wow! Thank you for all of the support so far! I hit publish less than 24 hours ago and we have had so many page views. The most amazing part is that we have had page views in EIGHT countries. That is truly incredible! August's face lit up when I told him. He is excited and motivated to "show his art to the world." I know that we have some subscribers, too, but I can't figure out where to approve them. Rookie blogger here, remember? Clearly, I have some work to do.  Thanks again for your patience and support.

And the real reason you are here...August's art. This is a sketch of a crab that August started at school and worked on a little bit at home. I don't know about you, but if I were to draw a crab from memory it wouldn't look anything like this.


Hope the rest of your Thursday is wonderful!

Birthday Cupcake

We are heading to a 10th Birthday party momentarily and I wanted to pop on to show you August’s quick creation. Normally, he would make a card, but having just moved last week, the blank cards are currently unaccounted for in one of the basement boxes. So, a blank envelope and some colored pencils were all we had at the moment. August asked me what the birthday boy’s favorite color is and I guessed green. The birthday boy wears glasses so it truly is a personalized “card.” I think it’s adorable!

Lady with a Glass Eye

Have you seen the animated movie Sing? In the movie, there is a quirky, old lady chameleon who has a glass eye. August decided to re-invent this character in human form. Here is what he came up with: And a closer-up shot: When I asked him about his drawing, he mentioned the texture of the skin which he modeled after the palm of his hand. He also said he worked hard on the divot under the nose (he called it by it's actual name but of course I can't remember what that is.) For reference, the drawing is about 4 inches tall. I'll be sure to post an update when he makes progress with this drawing. I have a feeling he is going to complete this one!

Well, hello there! It certainly has been awhile! I did not intend to take such a hiatus, yet here we are. August has made so much progress in the past year. Here is a sample of work created during his 5th grade year. Enjoy!
