Some thoughts on Art from our resident artist, Maddie
October 6, 2009
Perhaps I’ll just retire and let Maddie take over the blog. Or maybe I’ll just have a monthly “Art with Maddie” segment.
(After we recorded this, she suggested I send the video to “that guy who painted the Mona Lisa”. I informed her that he was dead, but assured her there would probably be other artists who would watch it and appreciate it as much as he would.)






Hi, I'm Heather Plett. I'm excited that you've stopped by to learn more about how we can make the world a better place through the sharing of our gifts and creativity. I've been thinking about these topics for a lot of years now. Through my work in creative communication, workshop facilitation, fundraising, leadership training, and freelance writing, I've gathered a lot of wisdom and stories from my own experiences and the experiences of the people I've been blessed with knowing.
I think a regular monthly “Art With Maddie” segment would be fabulous! I love the upside down heart I see in the bottom left corner. And I love that this takes her to her “happy place” because in truth, all art should take us to a happy place. Brava Maddie!
oh my! she is adorable.
loving the happy place art – great job maddie!
My happy place is a world of art, too.
I agree that your daughter is very sweet and talented too! It’s fun to watch her share her art. xo, O
I like your modern art, Maddie. It’s very free and expressive. It makes me think a little bit of the work of Spanish artist, Joan Miro. Thank you for sharing it. I hope you keep drawing always.
