The Gallery: Self Portrait

This weeks prompt from Tara at Sticky Fingers is self portrait. I told my girls that I had to get a picture of myself, would they help and what should I do? They thought it would be a good idea to have a picture of me doing something I liked. Should I choose reading, knitting, drinking tea or surfing the net (working very hard on the computer)? We decided to do all four, sat in a very comfy chair, in the garden! Who cares what the neighbours thought we had a great laugh. Despite hubbie asking if I was going to crop out my ‘blue’ feet (they’re always cold).

This is what my soon to be 15 year old came up with.

6 year old got this:

I’m very proud of both of them as my other passion is photography, and I think I have two great apprentices on board.

Great pic! Think you need to enlarge it, frame it and hang it in your house.
