The boys and I went to my friend, Christine Benjamin's, art opening today while hubby played golf. We love her paintings. They are so vibrant and colorful and too much fun! Her paintings are full of quirky characters from her vivid imagination: skulls, monsters, sock monkeys, and robots. Sorry the photo is so blurry. That's Christine on the left and me on the right. The kid's favorite is the one behind us and this little one below.
Click here to view more of her wonderful work. She is also a fabulous illustrator! Her sock monkeys have so much personality. This one below is called "Teasing Death".
We're so excited! Next week, our neighborhood independent childrens book store, Hicklebees, is hosting, Mark Teague. His Secret Shortcut has been a long time favorite. We also love his How to Dinosaurs Say Goodnight. I hope to have pictures to post next weekend.
