Mixed Media Monday - Helping Hands - My son Cole and his latest watercolour and ink pieces....and my Mother's Day Cake from Cole....


Hi Everyone...Cole and I spent Mother's day enjoying special treats and quality time together....he painted with my special inks and watercolours and I ate some cake....The top piece was looking pretty scary at first but it is my favorite painting right now....the vivid colours and the darkness looks pretty neat...and then the metallic inks really add some depth...I just ask Cole what colours he wants and I squeeze them out into his pallet....and he goes wild....I really enjoy watching him create..........




He always looks so serious when he paints.....


and also very serious when there's cake to be eaten!!! lol Maybe Cole will be in some Exhibitions...wouldn't that be wonderful!!!
Happy Monday!!!


Hugs
Diana

  4. What a feast to share with your blog friends! And what a wonderful illustration of a Mother's Day spent in sharing a love of painting and colour with Cole (not to mention the cake!!). Cole is definitely an artist-at-work. I hope we saw more of his work as the years go by.

  17. Coles painting again is gorgeous.

    I laugh at men with dreams or tarots. They believe in it much more than women and that is why they are always scared ot it.

    Love Renee xoxo
