You wouldn’t say drawing/painting is intimidating to you. You did an excellent job!
And I love how your painted rocks will be used.

I’m sorry you had such a hurtful/unjust experience with your grade school teacher. They were wrong and probably had dumb ideas about what qualifies as “art.” I’m glad you’ve kept nurturing your creativity and artistry

Of course the red squirrel pointing butt at the viewer cracked me right up & is my fave, what a card!
A friend once had a teacher instruct her kindergarten child to “colour in one direction” as an art critique. She printed off an image of the band One Direct & once coloured (in All sorts of little kid cross-hatch) sent it to school, ha!
My lovely daughter told me just this year that a teacher said the same thing to her. My daring little artist who is so brave with her creations, I was outraged! I needn’t have worried, she said she knew that was bs when she heard it.
@Lynx will make a great art teacher, she’s never going to discourage creativity in favour of conformity. Encouragement & creative freedom make all the difference in school!

This is such a great idea for a fun project to pretty up a backyard or neighborhood walking route. I need to try this for sure
