I am no Picasso.
It all started when someone gave me a card by Sark. Sark said to let your inner critic go and paint away. My brother (who is on my side at all times) humored me and made me this GIANT canvas. He also gave me some brushes and paints. Granted it took me two years to finally get around to doing any painting, but once I did, I went nuts. I don't know why I was fixed on circles but as you can see I liked them- a lot. The painting dried and I bugged Ted for days to hang it in our bedroom. It is actually not finished. Cate and Alex's hand prints are not on the painting yet and I want to put two more quotes on it. Then my masterpiece will be complete. I call it "Life by Beth".

I love it Beth, it looks beautiful!
I didn't know you liked Sark. I love her stuff too!
Great job.
As official canvas stretcher, my only suggestion is that if it's truly "Life", then you, Ted and the kids should continue adding little parts to it over the years. Why stop now, eh?
