Hello All!!
While visiting in Michagan , Chrissy and I went to an art fair/ exibit in St. Joe, where they had some of the top artists from all over the states exibiting and selling. We met a painter / portrait artist named Robert who had many paintings up and Chrissy wondered if he would draw her . We asked and agreed to do Charcoal of Chrissy . He said he dosn't do many children cause they have a hard time sitting still . I didn't mention to him before hand that Chrissy is a wiggle worm !! Then a small miracle happened!! . She ACTUALLY sat PERFECTLY still for about 45 minutes. He was so impressed with her sitting so still that after he asked if she would pose for his drawing class -as he is a local teacher in the box factory art studio . ( we had to leave back home for southern Ca so that didn' work out . OK, I still am wondering how she sat there without moving it boggles my mind to think about it LOL!!
(btw that drawing on her hand is a henna done by a lady from india that day ... it faded to brown and took a long time before it came off!! )
I told him I would take pics of him drawing her and send it to him so these shots resulted from that...
I was working on them to send him today ( not much postworked here with the pics here really just resized ) - so thought I would throw it up on here to share our little experiance today ...!
Still waiting for my 16 year old comp obsessed Annie's laptop to come in so I can spend more time one here hopefully soon! Then we need to figure out the wireless rounter ( never had a laptop before)...
* please view full size or I am afraid it won't look all that great !
Thanks for all your time and comments!!
((( BIG hugs )))

Oh what a beautiful portait you have dedicated to Chrissy! I'm sure she will love this fabulous created collage! She has got the same wonderful long hair like her mom! What a fabulous posting you have uploaded here!!!
A very beautiful collage of excellent shots. I like especially the portrait on the left side, what a wonderful expression. Superbly done!!
real nice collage :)
Kimarie, I am astonished enough to see in your photographs, the same love that you carry in Chrissy, as well refleté in his intelligent glance. The spiritual communion, seems to exist on a very high level, would be this only to thank you for your agreement for this splendid drawing. You, like your child, will keep this 45 minutes of exemplary wisdom, it, a marvellous memory by seeing the drawing, you an extraordinary moment in complicity with your child. Thanks for having made us share delight!
WOW..soooooo lovely my Dear Kimmer's!!!!!!!!!!Bravissima!V:DDD.Big Hugsxx Whylma
real nice collage :) Agree here erland
the (beautiful) collage was a very good idea! nice work
Oh don't they (children) just love to prove you wrong?? LOL! Yep, the amount of times I've said that my kids won't do this or that and then they just have to go and do it!!! Anyway, she is gorgeous and I can sense the huge amount of love that you have for her in your writings and you have presented that 45 minutes in a beautiful collage - definitely one to be treasured forever! And perhaps with the offer to model for him, this could be a future career for her?? Hugs Chrissy xx
Nicely presented collage of your sweet daughter's portrait making.
What a geat memory she will have, I have several portraits of my son:):):):)
Very good!
This is cool. Awesome shots Kim
Excellent and creative photo gallery my friend.....!!!
nice collage of a beautiful young lady. it reminds me of same kind of artists spread all around the 'Place du Tertre' near Montmartre in Paris, catching expressions of tourists' face on their drawing paper...
What a beautiful child she is, a lovely composition too!
Beautiful collage of a special young lady, both the portrait by the painter and the portrait by the photographer are excellent. I think the artist will very much appreciate the collage you are sending to him. I think you're collage as well as Chrissy's charcoal portrait would look fantastic framed and hung on the wall. Beautiful. Bravo!!!!!
Kimmie! That is going to be a treasure for the ages!! Everyone involved did awesome!!! SUPER! :o)b itsumama
