Birds of a Feather


Mauri brought this home from school yesterday:


This is one of her latest art pieces... a tribute to her dear birds (yes, they are STILL around), Buddy and Tweety.  I need to ask her about the pink and purple parakeet in the back... my guess would be that it's a rendition of Buddy and Tweety's imagined offspring.

I remember her concern about finishing the piece a few months back -- she had worked so long on the details, she wasn't sure she would have time to paint it.  I also remember her relief that she had managed to complete her project in time.

She only brought it home for a day because her art teacher wants it back to enter it in an art show.  Mar is concerned that she may never see it again, but I have reassured her that she will, barring breakage.  Bill left a nice roll of bubble wrap for Mar to transport it in.  What a good dad.

  1. That's really cute, she did a good job! And maybe the bird is a new bird that she is going to try talking you into buying after she wins the art contest :)
