Matthew spent hours working on this and was so pleased with it when he finished.

I forgot to ask the artist, but I think that is a cow in the middle there...

I think I've seen something incredibly similar to Farmhouses in NYC's Museum of Modern Art..... You have a couple talented little kidlets! Also, who is Heather? A friend?

They both love to draw. I suspect Santa will leave some art supplies for them this year. :)

Heather is a cousin, which reminds me that I need to mail that to her, per Matthew's request.

Matthew has really enjoyed his after school art class, and it is fun to watch him try new things at home.
