Then we were to draw the items, never looking at the paper while we were drawing. So, of course the drawings were going to be ...weird. Funny thing, they weren't as bad as we thought they would be! :O)LuAnn @ BackPorchervationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01775630749079885915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1715948426984829836.post-7991681643266591432015-04-04T18:52:06.879-04:002015-04-04T18:52:06.879-04:00That's true, Shilpa.

Fascinating stuff, as is living in an area small enough to know everyone, or at least know of them.<br /><br />Your character sounds kind hearted, to take in the dog.<br /><br />You left a message on my blog asking about how to encourage your daughter when she thinks she doesn't do art very well. Tell her it's about having fun. Ask her the three questions, "What do you like about what you draw (or paint or etc.)?" "What do you want to improve on?" and "What do you need from me?"<br /><br />For the last one, she may not know what to answer, so offer things like drawing/painting books, lessons, more paper and supplies, <br /><br />Let her know it's not about being perfect, and doing great art, it's about doing what you love.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1715948426984829836.post-52718989855320986352015-04-04T14:12:34.577-04:002015-04-04T14:12:34.577-04:00It's great to live in a small, tightly-knit co...It's great to live in a small, tightly-knit community.

You don't get that when watching it on TV. Always loved the HATS...so creative and fun. I get that small town biscuits and gravy bunch and gossip...grew up in a small town...probably smaller...we didn't have a Dog Walk farmers market. Guess Grandma Elsies' Dinner counted...best coffee and pie ever.<br /><br />So glad MC has a hound dog named Duke. I can see Duke having an impact in the chapters to come.<br />Sue at <a href="http://collectintexasgal.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">CollectInTexas Gal</a><br />AtoZ 2015 Challenge<br />Minion for AJ's wHooligansSue McPeakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927975578544675345noreply@blogger.com
