Auntie Mare's Art

My sister, Marilee, is a talented artist. She gave Clara and Jack canvases for their rooms as Christmas gifts. Here are Clara's up in her room and some closeups. I chose this verse from Zephaniah for Clara and I hope she remembers and memorizes it as she grows up with these beautiful paintings in her room. I love the whimsical flowers and the ribbon that coordinates with the ribbon on the bed and pillows. It was hard to get a picture that shows how detailed and beautiful they are but here's an idea.

This is the one she did just for Jack. His room is a California/Hawaiian Surfer theme. I can't believe how cute and original it is!

These two are just some more samples of Marilee's work!


Aren't these trees amazing and relaxing?! If you're interested in Marilee doing a painting for you, contact me and I'll get you her info. Or you can follow my link to her blog (The Wights) and contact her yourself!
