Young and talented artists in Des Moines, Iowa






I visited relatives in Des Moines and it turned into a great painting workshop! Sophia (age 7) and Sara (age 9) are talented artists and I learned much from them. Each girl did her own sketches with an excellent eye for proportion, and made their paintings independently. Aren't they fabulous?

Sara and Sophie like to paint while wearing rollerskates, something I had never considered before. Here are our paintings - all of these were completed in one day!

The painting with lots of color and detail is a collaboration by the three of us.
