But since it was Mother's Day and Mark was visiting his mom (and so Mom didn't have a painting partner), I thought it would be fun to paint with my mom in his stead. We decided to work on the same painting based from a photograph I took of a swan a few months ago. It's a good thing I had Mom guiding me and helping me think before I painted (more so on the swan than the waves, as you will see!).
While I think hers is still way better than mine, I was pleased that at least this time you could tell what I painted :) (Yes, the above one is mine...the poor swan must be sea sick since those are some crazy waves I painted!)

hi,
That's great Rachel. You did a good job. If I had done done that it would have been a stick figure swan.
I am glad I got to see you guys at ODBC. I am praying for the rest of your visit and your return trip.

They all look good; we never knew that you all were artists. How about drawing a picture of Mark? Phil would like to see him writing his dissertation.
Wonderful swans! Such a nice hobby to share with your mom, Rachel. I think you've both improved since last summer. Your M's Day tribute to your mom brought tears to my eyes! Wish you and Mark could stop by here again this year--we would have enjoyed havin' you! I'm enjoying keeping up with you all via your blogging--
Love, Aunt Linda
I think you did a great job! I like the waves, they're an abstract version...Every artist has to have their own style!
