This last Saturday the "Grimshaw girls" got together, like we have for the past four years, and participated in the Chalk Art Festival at the Gateway mall. This year's creation was probably my favorite and by far the easiest. In the past it has usually taken us 8 or more hours to finish our chalk art but this year I would say it took 4 to 5. This year as well we had the privledge of being featured artists because we won last years competition for "Best use of Medium." My sis-in-law Camille is the one who got us girls involved in this to begin with and is the only true artist. She draws it and we color in the lines. I'm am so glad she asked us all to join her four years ago because it is so much fun to hang out with my family and create something together! Love you girls!
This year we decided to make one of Camille's famous mermaids. She picked me to be her lovely model....lol.
