Art

Justin was honored yesterday at his 8th grade awards assembly (no more 8th grade graduation - Leah's class was the last year they did that). But, back to Justin. He was one of 3 who were given an award for their artistic ability. He also brought home some of his art and I just love it. We've already gone out to get frames and we just need to put in some nails in the wall.

Here are two of his paintings.

This so reminds me of Buford (God rest his soul).

Another wonderful picture.

The next two I think Justin really like. He was talking about 'his car' this week. The assignment was to draw using the squares. The picture comes from a calendar. Of course, I like them all.

Painting is the grandchild of nature. It is related to God.
