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 )))

Good job sitting still; what a pretty little girl !!!! :)))
Nicely put together Kimmers. Looks like you had a fun day at the art fair. Your daughter is sooo cute. Takes after her mom =)
children knows when to sit still and she ask for the drawing. You did not force her. She knows somehow that she have to sit still for the portrait to come out right. Maybe the last time for awhile you see this happen with her. a wonderful story telling photo collage you did
Chrissy is so beautiful. Wonderful artwork from you both Kimmers. A drawing to treasure. Hugs. Di.
