Pippi gets a hair cut and new earringsThis is the beginnings of a quick sketch I did while attending the children's piano practice - such a wonderful time to sketch, a cozy room, beautiful music! I will get back to work on her soon. My daughter, an avid Pippi fan, does not like the idea that this could be Pippi, perhaps growing up.. she is not happy with the missing braids.
Banana by T Moore age 13This has been a challenging week, trying to meet the individual needs of a family with four distinct personalities - today I cannot even fathom having 3 or 4 children as I once imagined :-) But, with that said, I can honestly say for the Brave Girls Club, that today
Compromise is awesome!

Hello! I wondered what happened to last week's sketch. Hee :) Good to see you and your fam back to sketching - always a blessing to me and ALWAYS puts a smile on my face and in my heart. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy SS!
Love all of your work, Pippi is growing up quite nicely. I am in awe of the kids talent it is so good that you encourage them.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a heavenly way to spend time. Listening to your children practice the piano and sketching...so nice.
ReplyDeleteWe all have to let go of the braids sometimes! he he he. I wore braids from 1st - 4th grade...back in the day. so i can relate to your pippi wanting to grow up a bit!
nice banana, too!!!
I agree with marlene, it's so great how you encourage your kids with their art. hope you have a great sunday!

These are great sketches. I think I do not want to think about pipi without her braids either...I just love Pipi! Love the flying hat too and great job on the banana! Good luck with the coming week. I sure can relate, must be a bad week for personality clashes, cause we had them here too!!!

so lovely to see your families drawings!! wishing you a week that feels wonderful to you!
ReplyDeleteI too love drawing in random and sundry places. Piano practice sound like the perfect form of inspiration. I love Pippi's pert little nose.
ReplyDeleteThat really sounds like an opportune time and place to get some sketching in! Pippi is off to a good start.
ReplyDeleteIt is so inspiring seeing the work from all of you, sharing such a beautiful moment as in when you are creating art.
ReplyDeleteYes kids can be quite particular about things :)
ReplyDeleteThe sketches are absolutely lovely!!
