Two Artist nieces



 Molly Drum is one of my three beautiful nieces. She lives in Bendigo, where the extended Drum family gathered this year for Christmas. This is the second piece of artwork that Molly has allowed on this blog, I feel very lucky! Isn't this picture just gorgeous? I absolutely love it! Those colours are sensational, they make me smile every time I look at this picture. Thank-you, Molly, twas lovely to draw with you at xmas. Keep the amazing drawings coming!!
This is an unfinished piece by another stunningly talented niece, her name is Mietta Drum-Mullally. I hope she doesn't mind me posting it unfinished, that hanging spider seems to be missing a few legs....but I just love her style and attention to detail. Mietta recently completed Year 12 art in Melbourne, and she got a result of 48/50, which means she is in the top 3% Year 12 art students in Victoria! And she's only in Year 11!! I am sooooo proud of her!

Mietta and Molly have both promised to send me more of their artwork. My other niece, Bridget Drum, is also an awesome artist, watch this space for her artwork, it will be posted up very soon.

Yasmine Harradine


Yasmine Harradine is an artist in Year 5 at 298 Horsham PS. I have been teaching her class for the last three weeks while their teacher, Mr Vivien, was on holidays overseas. The whole class produced these amazing pictures as part of their research projects on Antarctica. They worked on the backgrounds using collage and fineliner felt-tip pens, then today they drew their topic animal on a separate piece of paper and stuck them on front of the backdrop. Yasmine, this is a beautiful masterpiece!!
