The art show was fantastic. So many different styles and mediums including oils, acrylics, water colour, pencil and pencil crayon, black & white and colour photography, and collage. Jaclyn was the only one who included her book of poetry and many commented on her incredible talent. She was supported by her entire family, my friend Cathy, and two of her good friends. It truly was an eye-opening evening and made me feel that maybe, just maybe, I could have some photographs worthy of framing, too. Here are some photos of the evening. And yes, even baby Eden attended the premiere.
I'm so proud of Jaclyn and how hard she has worked on her paintings and her poetry. Unfortunately, the artists were limited in the number of pieces they could include and I was a bit disappointed that two others pictures Jaclyn had done were not there. Two of her pieces shown here now belong to friends of hers who love her work. They generously donated the use of the pictures for the duration of the show. Click on the photos to enlarge them and to see details of her work.

Your daughter is very talented! I'm sure she got it from her mama! I love the donkey....it reminds me of the donkey in Shrek!
Wow! I am very impressed with Jaclyn's talent. I know her jewelry is gorgeous, but I had no idea who painted and wrote poetry as well. Jaclyn is looking fabulous, by the way! You have a nice looking family, all the way down to teeny, tiny Eden. What a cutie!
I meant "she" not "who". *sigh* typo typo...
Gosh, like mother like daughter! Striking resemblance!
Congratulations to Jaclyn! I can see she's very talented and looks so much like her Mama!
Peace - D
Its clear the apple of your eye didnt fall far from the wonderful tree .... awkward way of saying she looks like you and I am sure she gets her talent from you too ..
BTW .. you never did come pick up your Just Plain Fun to Read blog badge ... come and get it!

Lol I hate to rain on mom's parade of compliments saying I must have gotten my talent from her, but I do believe it comes from my dad...the writing I get from mom, though, that's a given.
And yeah, we do look quite a bit alike (like mother like daughter I know) and I'm past the point of 'being resigned to look like my mom.' I'm now at the point where I'm happy to look like such a beautiful woman, and I can only hope I age as gracefully.
OH, and thank you to everyone for the compliments on my work and outSTANDING beauty ;)
Jaclyn is right that she doesn't get her artistic talent from me. But it does run in the family - her Dad was artistic along with my grandmother and one of my sisters. The writing? well yes, from me. lol Thanks my darling daughter for the lovely compliments. love ya!
What a really beautiful picture of you with baby Eden
