From the Archives

I was cleaning out the sunroom a few weeks back and ran into some old artwork we’ve been saving.  Before I moved it upstairs to the container we purchased for the artwork, I took the opportunity to snap some photos.

So, without further ado, some art, with commentary, as always, from the artiste:

“I regret my decision”….Kevin doesn’t remember this, but I do…when asked why he chose this profession Kevin replied “because I want to make people happy, and people are always happy after they get their food!”

“I remember making this…not sure what the project was but we were all on a beach”.  Matthew just walked over when were doing this and noticed he’s not in this picture…and isn’t very happy about it!  This picture appears on some coffee mugs and magnets…

from fourth grade “Oh yeah, we had to do a reflection thing.  I remember not liking it when I first made it but it looks ok now.  I had to fold the paper in half and didn’t do it that well.”
