Project Progress
 Master creator
Always working with his hands
Legacy is mine
I visited my mom and dad recently in the White Mountains of eastern Arizona.
Every time I go, my Dad (seen here at his recent Daddy-Daughter Show at the local college gallery),
requests that I bring a project that he can help with in his workshop.
We have father-daughter-shop-time – my favorite!
Dad has always worked with his hands, as a carpenter, cabinet maker, builder, and multi-media artist.
He’s a master at detail work and fine crafting.
So, I had him help me cut out wooden hearts and retablos.
 I primed them…which doesn’t look so great..
but one must be patient!
They’ll soon look something like this…
and finally morph into something like this
…previously…finished…bunch.
Wish I had the photos of this new batch ready to show, but they’re simply not sufficiently presentable yet.
Linking with Rebecca’s Haiku My Heart @Â http://corazon.typepad.com/.
How awesome to be able to make art with your dad. I’m so envious. Your wood creations are wonderful. Would you tell me what kind of wood you use, as I love working on wood but just have not found the right one yet. Your haiku is great..what a legacy you have.
Beautiful legacy, Dawn.
Thank you for sharing your project. It’s nice to work with family members. My daughter, daughter, granddaughter and I art & craft t together sometimes.
Beautiful work and even more beautiful with you and your Dad as a team ~ so blessed ~ happy weekend to you ~ carol ^_^

How wonderful to share this love for creating with your Dad. My Dad LOVES photography, something I only got “into” in the past five years… now it is a shared passion. Better late than never:-)
