Valentine


Mama bird and baby bird. tweet tweet. "Will you be my valentine?"
I painted this when I was pregnant with Felix. I painted through the morning sickness and wondered about my baby. "Who are you, my love?"


Felix painted this the other day and declared it a Valentine flower. He banned me from the room while he worked, since I kept making suggestions. Good boy!

I love it so much when artists have artist children. It's the best.

I love your paintings so much Kat! And I love Felix's painting, too.

Btw, my daughter does not like me to make suggestions either.

Felix is so cool! I love his creation. I hope you frame it. It's so hard to stay out of our kids' way, and let them do their own thing, isn't it?! Love your painting.

P.S. Please, tell Felix how much I love his painting!

Both are unbelievably sweet and beautiful!

Being prego I can totally relate to the painting you created while pregnant with Felix. It captures this feeling so perfectly! If only I could paint... ;)

Thank you everyone for all the kind comments. Felix is giving his painting to my aunt for her birthday present.

That's so wonderful that your son shows such an independent spirit at such a young age. And how special for him to have art made by his mom while she was pregnant with him.
