Wordless Wednesday: Family Artist

Growing up I remember my grandfather's various pieces of artwork around my grandparent's house. It is a hobby of his that he is very good at. When we bought our house more than 7 years ago, he drew this sketch of purple flowers for me. Purple is my favorite color. Then my husband had it framed for me and it hangs in our hallway.

    That's awesome! My great grandma was a painter, too. But most of her stuff is in the shed. :/
