Family Tree (from scraps)

Image
Dad made this family tree from scraps of wood and fallen dead branches from Cavite when he attended the church retreat last April. He carved our names on these recycled blocks of wood. Making something out of scrap.  Notice my name second from the top (being the eldest child), still single? That will change.

if I can, you can

Never say never, don't underestimate your talent or what you can possibly do. Not so long ago I didn't think I could ever really paint and now I do, and when I started I only used pastel sticks . Some friends encouraged me to try acrylic s, i didn't think I could like acrylic since you have to use brushes with it and I have shaky hands. I wasn't sure I can handle brushes but I gave it a try and surprised myself. Now I enjoy both pastel and acrylic equally. Took a lot practices and I still do. The key is to not give up on something you haven't even tried, to doubt you can really do it, especially if it's something you really want to do. Give yourself a chance, time to learn and polish and 'd be amazed at what you really can do. Here's one of my acrylic practices that so far shows my improvement.
