Sweet is not exactly a word that describes me, but my husband set up my blog, and that is what he named it. Seeing that he is my biggest fan, how could I change it?

This Summer at Madison Heights Presbyterian, we are studying The Psalms.  They are so full of God's promises and His love, which none of us deserve.  I read this last night.

"I waited patiently for the Lord to help me.
    and he turned to me and heard my cry.
 He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
     out of the mud and the mire.
 He set my feet on solid ground
     and steadied me as I walked along.
 He has given me a new song to sing,
     a hymn of praise to our God.
 Many will see what he has done and be amazed.
 They will put their trust in the Lord."

Psalm 40:1-3

My Talented Children

                                                                  Dixon Prewitt
                                                                  Mixed Media

When Dixon first showed me this painting on his phone, I thought it was a photograph.  It is actually a painting of his work desk he uses in one of his art classes.  I must admit, I was amazed.  The paper, pencil, and graffiti were all painted or drawn by him.

                                                            Grace Prewitt
                                                              Acrylic

Grace has painted several of these pop art silhouettes.  She usually does celebrities, such as John Wayne, Audrey Hepburn, and Marilyn Monroe.   This is of her boyfriend Jake.

                                                                  Gwynn Prewitt
                                                                       Acrylic

Gwynn won 3rd place for this painting in a school-wide art competition at Madison Central.  The photo doesn't do it justice. The texture is wonderful, I think.
