Katie's Art Show

Katie's big news this month, besides losing her top two front teeth (and looking like the typical 1st grader), was that a piece of her artwork was chosen to represent her elementary school at an Art Fair held at our local mall. Only two students in each grade were chosen for their exceptional skill for their level. We are so proud of her! She has always loved art but we had no idea her first Art Show would be when she was 6.


Katie has been creating works of art centering around German Shorthair Pointers since our dog, Sophie passed away last Spring. It was actually all of her creations (drawings, paintings, sculptures, clay molds, etc.) expressing her love for her dog last summer and the fact that she missed her so much that finally me brought me around to getting her another GSP for her birthday last September. So it's no wonder that her art centers around her dog, Gabby and she aptly titled the painting - "My Gift".
