My dearest daughter has
always had
An eye for detail; ever
since she was little
She has amazed me with her
drawings
With her talent for art; for
the intricacies
Of everything she
undertakes!
Plasticine was just one of
her mediums
Vanessa made wonderfully
detailed
Portraits of Mickey and
Minnie Mouse
A water scene; a car driving
over a bridge
The fisherman sitting on the
edge
The ducks swimming in the
water
Even the lines running down
The centre of the road
Another undertaking was of a
little chapel
People sitting on hand made
peg seats
The priest with his cassock
All the people in the church
A mother with her baby and
everyone
Wearing scarves to keep them
warm
As the cotton wool snow
covered all around
The little pine trees snow
covered as well!
The roof was removable;
cardboard over pegs
White snow all over the roof
The whole Christmas scene so
enchanting!
I made all her Barbies
clothing from bits and pieces
Until she decided to design
the clothes herself
Vanessa had her own little
exhibition
Of elegant Barbies; their
hair twirled in plaits
So beautifully done, their
clothes majestic
Crinolines and shawls of
peacock hues
All her dolls took part;
photographed
And displayed in the State
capital
Then she made dream catchers
And later jewellery; bought
from op-shops
All remade to her tastes!
My daughter I am so proud of
you!
