They Call Me “Ray”

He’s happy, bright and shiny … He’s Ray !!! Drawn by Jade (3 yrs old).

I love the similarity to one of my fave Picasso images (Above: White Faun Playing Diaulos).
So Exuberant and Fun! I saw the original in 1991 at the Musée Picasso in Antibes, France.

Jade and I LOVE picking (and of course eating) berries.

Official Blackberry Tester … To ensure “quality control”, Jade always tests the berries for me.

The Coquitlam River

Our family loves walking outside near the water and trees.

We often stop and throw rocks.

While we drew in our kitchen, Jade doodled her family & friends.
