thehamish dabbled in Performance Art.
Of course his art material of choice was food !

Daughter was unpacking some of her art
I was able to take a photo of the Birds.
...
So lucky to have the Black Bird.
This is a book.
More Art. . .
When Granddaughter was here over Christmas, she found a very small notebook
and drew these very fun and tiny drawings with one that Daddy made.
I taped them up in my pantry so I could see them every day.
...
Food as Art !
Put seaweed down. Fill mold (on both sides) with rice. Push down on rice with top.
Fill one side with filling and then close the pink box.
You end up with a terrific Onigiraze. Much easier that Onigiri (rice ball)
I added the Umeboshi !
So good and super easy.
......
And as always here is you pretty to start the weekend.

I like the little drawings in your pantry. I have some notes my children wrote to me years ago that are inside my kitchen cabinets.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I love that you did that. Happiness in daily life !
ReplyDeleteHi, Gayle!
ReplyDeleteArtistic ability runs in your family, dear friend, right down to your gud dugs. My dog Toto worked in a different medium - poop art. :) Your granddaughter's dainty little masterpieces make festive accents for your cupboard. Those bird figures are astonishing in their natural detail. Those Japanese-style sandwiches look delicious!
Have a fine weekend and a happy Mother's Day, dear friend Gayle!
Poop art is very important art form.
DeleteFood is all. Hamish was an artistic genius.
ReplyDeletethehamish was an artist before his time !
DeleteAs always, thank you for my Friday photos. Does iWinston dance too?
ReplyDeleteI am always so happy you like the Friday post.
Deleteiwinston doesn't dance yet, thehamish did.
What a talented family you are. I thought the tree looked like an arrow pointing to the sign. Love your granddaughters pictures. How precious to have them up at home. And your daughters birds too. Wonderful x
ReplyDeleteMia is a wonderful artist as all children are. I love every piece.
DeleteI love those little drawings! So cute!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day, my friend! I hope you have a wonderful and happy day.
Little drawings are the best
DeleteNot to diminish thehamish's artistic abilities, but your daughter's art collection is fantabulous. Love your granddaughter's pictures, too. Our fridge is covered with drawings the grands gave us, and inside one of my kitchen cabinets is a crayon drawing of a sailboat that our older son drew in there about 45 years ago. Sure, I could wash it off... but I like it there. (Not that I was a big fan of it at the time!)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day!
I would never wash it off and if I was moving the the cabinet would come with.
DeleteThose birds are absolutely amazing. Does she sell them i wonder?
ReplyDeleteThe big Black Bid was for her Booking Making class, the small Black Birds were part of her
DeleteThesis Dissertation at University.
I adore blackbirds. Many gather and live around our home and I'm quite certain they know who I am. Sometimes they follow me around and go from tree to tree keeping me company while outside. Those sculptures you've displayed are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMia is a talented little thing and displaying her artwork is a wonderful way to keep her close. Happy Mother's Day dear friend Gayle. Hugs to that gud dug. X
I read where a young girl feed the Blackbirds that where at her bus stop. They would follow her home. She started to feed them in her yard and they would bring her gifts by leaving them at the feeding table.
DeleteHappy Mum's Day big hug back at to you
Beautiful artworks. I love the tree thehamish made. Your daughter's birds are amazing. And I love Mia-Chan's drawings and how you display them!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about onigirazu. Looks easy enough even for me to make nice rice dish :-)
Happy weekend xo
I bought the little maker but tastes like yummy rice balls so fast and fabulous.
DeleteYou are very zen, Gayle. I was snooping through your pantry to see what you like. Saw ingredients for puttanesca. Love the little post artwork. Happy mother's day to you dear.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha You are always too mice to me. I have too many canned tomatoes but they were sent for dishes I did not cook (Blue Apron) But I have a few thing to cook when and if I feel like it or Son wants to cook.
ReplyDeleteThat was nice to me ... You should see my pantry now, I forgot to shop for the mail pick up today for the food bank so much is gone plus the pasta and cornbread mixes
DeleteHow lovely to be surrounded by all that art! I love the idea of putting your granddaughter's work in your pantry! Even Winston is dabbling now! xoxo
ReplyDeleteSome of the most fabulous pieces of art are from my children.
DeleteYour daughter made those? They're fantastic! Looks like Mia is a budding artist as well--must run in the family!
ReplyDeleteAnd I really love that last photo of Winston!
Mia is such an interesting person. She like rocks, gems. hiking, swimming and drawing.
