I'm taking on a two by three and a half foot painting! I'm pretty excited to start working on it. Will my attention span hold out to cover the entire panel? We'll see. I'll have to get a good book on tape going and ignore the kids while they reek havoc and watch movies. This is a rough drawing of what the piece will look like. It's about sisterhood and all sorts of mushy and gushy stuff. This is huge, I hope it ends up as amazing as it is in my head. Wish me luck.
A little complaint: Remember when those paintings disappeared from my front porch? Never to be seen again. I was just thinking about that as I pack up paintings to ship to Park City. I really look forward to taking the large box into the shipping store with my small children in tow. That should be fun.
A little boast: Southwest Art magazine just accepted me into their artists under 31 deal. Not only will I be in the magazine, but they liked my piece so much they are using it on their post card to advertise the issue. Cool.

Congratulations! What a wonderful Mother's Day present!
Good luck with the new painting. I can't wait to see it when it's done. I am interested to see what you do with it, being a big sister and all.
Love it, Emily!Seriously, how do you find the time to paint?
Oh yeah- I'm thoroughly enjoying all my Bountiful Basket stuff! It's wonderful! I'm gonna try to come and help early next time...
My sister and I had a great conversation the other day and it reminded me how great she is and how wise, and understanding and caring....i could go on and on....i'm so excited to see this painting, i'm sure it would be fantastic, you paint what i feel, it's amazing how connected we are as daughters of our Heavenly Father.

you are fabulous. Truly. how exciting for you. I mean this whole post is full of things for you and everyone else to be excited for you about. Congratulations. Can I hire you to paint a picture for me? just kidding, I know you don't like to do that
I love your sisters painting already. I can't wait to see the finished product. That's great about the art mag. What a great thing. It's so much fun watching your art career take off.
When you go to take your pieces to the ups store, make a stop off here and drop off your girls at my house.
