I spent a week in Oshkosh visiting family, and came across some stunning design work by my niece, Natalia, age 10. She is making Valentine's day cards, and is making a unique card for each student in her class. She wakes up as early as 5:30 a.m., and uses this quiet time in her day before school to focus on making the cards. She took over a table in the attic which she has stocked with all the necessary art supplies including beads, ribbon, paper, and glue. The table is called her 'design studio,' and is a place dedicated solely to her design work.
Her artistic eye (and her awesome work ethic) just blows me away. Her attention to detail is demonstrated by the placement of individual beads on the cards, all oriented in the same direction to give a beautiful effect. Her patience and skill in carrying out her vision are beyond impressive. Her super creativity, as well as a wry sense of humor, is manifest in by the absolutely unique character of each Valentine. Beautiful job, Natalia!
