With our kitchen re-build continuing, I haven’t had time to get creative with my camera this week. Even so, I thought this image of Helen, our eldest daughter, was worth sharing.
It’s a painting of a sheep that she’s created on a newly-plastered wall. As you can see from her face, she was very proud of her efforts!
Work on the new kitchen has continued this week, although not in the way we envisaged (more about that in the next few days). As things didn’t quite go to plan, we were presented with an opportunity to paint the room before the units and flooring are installed.
Little sister was at pre-school but, being half term, Helen was with us. There was one big, untouched wall that provided a superb canvas for a young, creative mind. We said Helen could put on some old clothes and paint what she wanted on it while mummy and daddy did some of the paintwork that required a steady hand.
It was a quick snap taken on my phone so I’m not going to share the technical details on this occasion. I hope you like the image, which I have linked to the #MySundayPhoto linky hosted by the @Photalife blog.

Bless her, she does look happy! I hope the kitchen works get back on track soon.
She was delighted. Alas, work on the kitchen hasn’t really picked up the hoped-for pace.
She looks so happy with her artwork.
Look forward to seeing the next update on the kitchen.
Thank you for linking up
The next update on the kitchen may reveal a certain sense of frustration in the progress. you have been warned!
I can see a woolly sheep!
I’m glad you can Fiona, has four legs and everything!
She looks so proud of her masterpiece – and so she should be. I bet she had a great time doing it #MySundayPhoto
Helen had the most amazing time and was very proud indeed.

She was over the moon with her artwork. It’s still there!

Its so nice that she is given this much space to draw. I can see the happiness in her face. #mysundayphoto
She was delighted to have such a large canvass Merlinda. It is indeed all over her face.
