Happy Father’s Day (a little belated!)

This week I have a special picture to share with you.   This is the gift that I gave my dad for Father’s Day.   I asked my 5 year old daughter and her 6 year old cousin to draw a picture of their grandad and they did not disappoint.   As soon as I asked my daughter to draw him her excited response was “I’m definitely drawing him in shorts because he always wears shorts!”, my nephew even managed to include his ever-present flip-flops!



The picture that my daughter drew was in colour so I honoured her colour scheme but my nephew’s drawing was in pencil so this gave me some artistic licence to choose the colours.  
My nephew is very much into Marvel superhero characters and I happened to be gifted some superhero fabric from the lovely Jen at Little T’s Haberdashery so this was the perfect fit for grandad’s t-shirt and was a good way to differentiate that the two drawings were from the two children.

Here is the finished picture:



Dad was very pleased with his picture and within minutes of opening had hung it in prime position on his office wall.  😊
