Ephemeral Works of Art



I have been meaning to put this photo up since 'Belongum' shared his son's picasso artwork. This 'Belongum' is my 13 year old daughters handiwork. The beast decided she was sick so spent the day in bed while I went to work. Her Uncle was also home from work and taking a nap. The beast was a tad bored, hence the artwork. Later in the morning she retreated back to bed. Her Uncle rising after she had gone to rest her weary head, wandered into the kitchen to get some breakfast. After the shock, bemusement and laughter wore off he decided he couldn't eat the eggs and sent me this pic via his phone.

The moral of this story 'Belongum' is that the true artist continues to draw, paint or create whenever the opportunity arises, and it is ongoing. This is not the first piece of artwork by the beast. She has many many more ephemeral works that have not survived the test of time, but the memories live on. 

Not to mention me washing walls etc etc etc to remove her handiwork on departure of the building.

Here's to the artist, may they grow in number for without them life would be boring!

Life is good.
