Mother and Artist

This is me painting a mural while holding my little girl!(My Inspiration in all that I do) I held her almost the entire 2 walls, she LOVES to watch me paint!(I actually do a better job when she's with me...that way I'm not focased on other things like her well being and is she hungry...and so on..) This is a landscape with a wolf theme. Done in acrylics. When I get the panoramic photos I'll post the finished mural!

I've done tons of artwork with my oldest daughter in my lap. Today she's an artist, Vanessa Holmstrand. on AW. Your daughter is your greatest masterpiece everything else is just ART!

Artist Reply: Your daughter is so lucky to share the same interests as you. She is also a wonderful artist! Thank you so much for all of your kind comments! I think I'm going to use that as my new catchphrase..She really is my greatest masterpiece!! :-)

Mothering is delightful, and creating as a Mother doubly so!! You are doing a wonderful job in juggling both aspects of yourself Lisa! The mural is excellent!! I would love to see the finished product!! ~S

Artist Reply: Your words are so inspirational. I am trying so hard to be the best mommy and artist I can be. Its very hard, but so worth it! (& I'll defonately post those pics of it finished as soon as I get them. :-)

i thought that left shoulder looked alot stronger than the right one! kidding aside, I have a little girl her age too and know exactly what you are talking about. those sea sponges sure do the trick for alot of techniques eh?
