the next generation

Today my grand daughter came over.  She is quite enjoying her art classes at school, and had received a couple of gift certificates for art supplies for Christmas.  But she had been told to see if there were any of my supplies that she could use, before going shopping, so she could maybe make what money she had go further.

She went home with water colour paints, acrylic paints, paper, stretched canvases, and collage materials.  Her father was joking, and said that she might have to spend her money on an organizing system, for all of the stuff she had.

I had explained to her that the supplies were a gift, and gifts should never come with strings attached.  The supplies were hers to do with as she pleased.  (I would still be interested in what she might produce.)
