A Grandma's pride

 Today, in lieu of something by me, I thought I'd like to share a piece of art created by one of the youngest members  of our family - our 5 year old grandson....



Today the quote is from Billy Graham..."The very purpose of Christ's coming into the world was that He might offer up His life as a sacrifice for the sins of men.  He came to die.  This is the heart of Christmas"

  2. Beautiful artwork! Major framing time for that one.

    Yes, that television commercial is a well done teary one. For the sentiment, and not owning that car.

    1. Yes, I would be framing that picture for sure. I suspect likely our daughter-in-love will most likely do that.

  3. That word transfer technique is really interesting. You could use that and adapt it. Go for it!

    1. I'm toying with using the transfer idea for the sky area of one of my landscapes - will have to see if I can find a quote that reflects the design I want to use.

  4. I was going to do a post about our 5 1/2 yr. old grandson's artwork later today - you beat me to it. And you're so very right how it makes my heart so full to see him create. You're budding artist has sure created a beauty. Thanks for the links today = there are some I bookmarked. Interesting technique with the cheesecloth especially.

    1. I'm sure seeing this piece of art in person would be even more special, but this is a photo of it. I know he gets his artistic talent from his mommy - she's a fabulous artist.

  7. Great job by your grandson. I think he has inherited your artistic talent.

    God bless.

    1. It's more like he's inherited his artistic talent from his mom - she's a great artist.

  8. What a creative picture! A lot of talent flows in your family. :)

    I was pretty determined to not cry at the commercial, but it got me. And got me good.

    1. He gets his art talent from his mommy - no doubt about it.
      Oh dear, sorry I made you cry (but I guess misery loves company?!)

  9. A budding artist just like his grandma. That cheesecloth technique is very interesting.

    1. I'm anxious to try the cheesecloth thing - just to see what happens. Artistic talent runs in the family - his mom is a graphic artist.

    And those daddy little socks - eeek! Actually my sis is the sock maker, wonder if she can resist them, tee hee!

    1. I can knit socks but I don't know if I would tackle anything quite that small. Would be a good use for scraps of yarn though!

    1. Little kids don't worry about the ideas of what we have that makes art and they just do their own thing.

  13. Hmmm, I wonder where he gets his talent from?! It's adorable and I hope it gets framed for a forever treasure.
    I've never seen that ad before, what a tear jerker.
