The life and trials of a homeschooling mom trying to live on 1 1/2 salaries in NYC. I will post my attempts at frugality, teaching my son and being a Christian wife.

Art Stuff
My family is the artistic sort. My husband paints (really well), sings in the church band, writes lyrics, and is crafty. My son is a modern dancer and sings with a nationally renown chorus. Me, I am the quiet man. My singing is relegated to the house, but it ain't bad. I can't draw stick figures, but I have an eye for photography and my dancing is more club style but it is joyful. Even our foster son is into the arts. He does flips that land light as a feather and raucously joins our family sing a longs in the car. That said, there is a lot of paint, music, dancing and laughing in my home. My son and husband are the most famous. Zach sang for his chorus at the 9/11 Memorial Ceremonies last year. Frank has sold a number of paintings this past year and he is currently working on a series called Women of the Bible.
These are his most recent commissions. The one on the bottom was huge! At 24" x 48", it was the largest painting he has done.
Here is a clip of my progeny at the 9/11 concert with his choir.
I am so proud of both their accomplishments. Perhaps I'll get to be thanked from a podium someday.
Frank's art has changed so much since he first started - he's really found his own and it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnd I cried when I saw/watched Zach on TV..... ;-)
Also - I've stood next to you at church enough to know you don't have to leaving your signing to just in the house! <3
