my silly partner…
Arlin Jack is the perfect partner for the online art class I’m taking by Carla Sonheim…the workshop is titled…”the Art of Silliness” and well what better partner could there be to be silly with?!
These eyeballs were a cut out, and an exercise to be creative with placement and photo taking/sharing.
Arlin’s been all about having his “own” everything…including a camera, so I found an old underwater camera from our vacation to Florida way back when…this is Arlin with eyeballs taped to the front, telling me to “smile!”
today we went on a photo-op scavenger hunt around the neighborhood today, because it was sunny and in the mid 50′s…absolutely beautiful! I love how the forecast reads rain everyday…it might rain for 5 or 10 minutes a day and then it’s sunny!
we found all kinds of creature inspiring photos to snap…
Arlin was pretty intrigued by these guys…but Mama, the stickler, wouldn’t let him touch…
“we…explore Mama!” is what he kept saying.
and we were having lots of fun…
till his trike wheel fell off, bolts and all…about three blocks from home. Arlin wanted me to carry his trike and him…no way jose, you’re a big boy, you walk. He’s been wanting me to carry him everywhere, and although it saves time when trying to get from point A to point B…I’m trying to save my poor back, and lately my knee…cause this chunker is a hefty load!

Every time I look at the stove pipe picture I am amazed at what you see that others would never notice. The creative mind you possess cannot be bought….it is a God given talent passed on to you from your Pappa!
