THE PRO & THE NEWBIE

I can’t draw a decent stick man. Laurie used to do a lot of drawing and was good at it. Who knows where this “art” gene comes from?!?

The Pro’s been at it for three years – since kindergarten, in fact. Now the Newbie wants to catch up to her. We proudly announce that Katelee and Tucker will both have exhibits at the Tupelo Art Museum while the Museum puts the spotlight on local students’ works. The exhibit is open to family & friends on Sunday afternoon, April 1st from 1pm until 3pm. Paint us proud !!

Katelee’s first exhibit when she was in kindergarten was a self-portrait. Last year she had two selections chosen – a representation of Van Gogh’s Starry Night, which she dubbed spooky night, and a picture of an apple which showed great light & shadow detail. I can’t wait to see what she’s done this year. Our Katelee loves to draw.

And now Tucker is getting in on the fun. We’ll know Sunday what their works are. Meantime, ask Tucker about golfing. His dad is starting him young. His 110 yard drive even intimidated some of the adults playing behind him. When asked about it, he replied matter-of-factly, “I smoked it.”

Way to go, Katelee & Tucker. I’ll post pictures of your artwork after Sunday.
