I Didn't See It

The Artist is convincing me more and more that she is aptly nicknamed.

After a party she and her brother delighted in popping a bunch of balloons on a string. When the noise quieted down there were lots of balloon pieces to pick up. They looked like garbage to me.

Ahhh, I was blind to the possibilities. With an artists' eye, she went right for a piece of paper so she could make an outfit.
Where I saw busted balloon belly buttons, she saw a blouse, a belt and blue jean capris.

Lately when the Artist draws, she is concentrating on the clothing of her figures. She took careful note of the gymnast's uniforms during the Olympics, drawing and labeling each one with it's wearer's name.
