Art

I came home late after a gathering with my colleagues, and was just enough to have dinner with my family. That's important.

Of course it is. Family dinner is one of the most treasured moments for us. We then talked about the best activity of the day. Jasmine answered without thinking, "Painting with mum this afternoon."

It was then I noticed two new paintings in our living room, one oil painting, and another watercolour.

Every child is an artist, Picasso reminds us. "The problem," he observed, "is how to remain an artist when we grow up." Oh, sure, many of us have lost our naturally born artistic flair. But my wife hasn't. She remains to be an amazing model whom my daughter can learn from and look up to.
