Photography Show, Spring Break, and Crayon Art

It's FINALLY Spring Break!! I thought 3:20 on Friday afternoon would never come. But it did and I am one happy lady.

Last week, Stefan and I attended an art show at our friends' studio. Renee and Will Reedy own a studio in downtown Columbus. Renee is a photographer (like myself) and Will is a cinematographer (like Stefan). Stefan and I met this lovely couple through our church. Will is our new worship leader in our contemporary service, and Renee plays the keyboard in the praise band. When we found out that both Will and Renee were into photography and cinematography we were ecstatic! Since then we have had many chats about church, faith, and the arts. Stefan and I are both looking forward to what God has in store for this new friendship.

I have been meaning to be more crafty lately, but time has been something I have not had. I took the opportunity on this beautiful day to do something crafty after my sister and I came back from shopping. I have seen this crayon art deal going on through Pinterest (where else?), and I thought I would give it a try. I apologize that I didn't take picture throughout the project. You'll just get to see the finished product. The one on the left is the version that is seen on Pinterest. I used an 8 x 10 canvas and just chose different shades of the same crayon. (I bought a box of 96 crayons just for this occasion!) The one on the right is a different version of crayon art (Stefan's idea but my work.)


As seen on Pinterest.


 Stefan's idea of crayon art. I did the work.


I know this picture isn't crayon art. I just like it. Stefan doesn't like pictures so I rarely get one with him in it.

Hey Girl! I love this blog. Hope you and that fella are having a great spring break.. we would love to see you sometime... Just think ,it won't be long until school is out..Papaw hasn't felt well the last few days,but hopefully will soon. We haven't done much. Church on Sundays and doctors' appointments and and that's about it.

Hope to see you soon... My computer has been down again,and now I am making up for lost time.
Love you both,
