Mixed Media Piece for My Oldest Son

Created August 3rd 2018

I made this for my oldest sons kitchen. He moved to a new place a while back and I thought I should make him some unique art to display in his home so when he missed me he has something with my energy in it to remind him  love him. I hope this inspires you to create something beautiful for someone you love. and if so, post it on facebook, youtube, or instagram #inspiredbybawcraftworx so I can see it and leave a comment. Happy crafting everyone xoxoxo
