[serene]

Yesterday was a really good day with the teenager. We were both in good moods, and unbeknownst to her, I decided to spend a whole day without criticizing her, which probably helped us both STAY in good moods.

Anyway, we went to the store to spend some of her birthday gift certificates. loracs's household had bought her a gift card for Artist and Craftsman in Berkeley, and they were having a sale on stretched canvas, so the kid bought four or five canvasses (canvases?), a charcoal pencil, and a paintbrush. Then we ate Thai food and went home and raided sogwife's considerable stash of acrylic paints. Here are the results:

	Yay! Inspired by the "Serene" painting intenselaura got me when she visited, wtfpotatoes created one for me in flame and/or chili-pepper motif.
	Sun moon stars I myself, being not much of a visual artist, stuck with simple shapes that I wouldn't be too disappointed in if they didn't work. I'm happy with them, though the sun didn't turn out the way I'd envisioned it.

Really good day.

Fun fun fun! Is the kid (I don't remember her name) willing to share her artwork too? I do hope so.

I don't understand what you mean. (Her name here is wtfpotatoes and the first painting in this post is hers.)
