Art appreciation






 When I was in grade school, I had a fear of art.  I had math anxiety too but it was nothing compared to how I felt when it when it came time to 'bring out your crayons and scissors and make this project'.  My blood ran cold...    The reason was I felt like a klutz.   While it seemed to me the other kids were confidently folding and cutting paper and  producing a perfect snowflake as expected, I was still trying to figure out the first fold and ended up with no snowflake at all.  A sort of artistic dyslexia if there is such a thing.  At least that is how I remember it.   Bianca is boosting my self esteem.  She thinks my artwork is amazing! I produce pictures on command.  Her most frequent request and favorite works are our self portraits... "make me... make you.."

It's all in the teamwork as we decide together shall we wear hats?Shall we wear ballet shoes?  "Oh yes!"

I'm going to have to expand my repertoire to keep up with her.
