So glad you popped by Aidan with your appreciation of Michele’s blog.
And yes, I think it’s that evident connection between her and her children that got me thinking about approaching Michele with the theme for the post!

… the connection with her children is so evident that, even if she didn’t write this fantastic blog, it comes through in her work.

Love her paintings
