Callum Enters Art Contest

Just had a very excited phone call from Callum. Last week, he submitted a picture to his school for entry into the Mid-South Fair art contest. The school picks two pieces of art from each grade to submit to the competition itself. And Callum's was one of the two second grade pictures chosen!!! We are not sure when he will find out if or where he places overall, but even getting chosen is very exciting! Good job Callum!!

His picture was of a chimera fighting a fire breathing dragon. Very Callum! He had a detailed background of trees (one with a branch on fire because of the dragon) and dancing stars. I'll try to scan it when we get it back, but I might have to do it in sections, and piece it back together...

Well done Callum. I hope we can see the picture after the fair. I looked at the link and it looks good fun!! Are you all going to go? Love Grandma Mary xxxxxx

Oh yeah - we'll have to go! We usually go anyway, but this gives us a great reason.

I remember winning a bag of tulip bulbs for colouring in some Wombles once - I think that was the height of my artistic career. Cal really has the bug though now, and is looking for other competitions to enter.

Do you know yet how Callum did at the Art Show? It was this weekend, I think?
We have some much needed rain here this morning. Much love to you all from Mumxxxxxx
