I am submitting this on behalf of my daughter, Emily. I attended the family program and my daughter participated in the children’s program with Caroline. This is both hand-drawn and digital by Emilly. Her feelings about gratitude and this piece of art are written on the artwork.

Thank you for the opportunity for her to share her feelings through visual arts.

The holidays reminds me of reindeer, snowmen, and Christmas trees.

I drew this drawing because I am so grateful for sandy beaches and warm clothes. I added the clouds to represent the fogy days. I also added a half sun because some of the most beautiful moments that I have spent were sunsets with my family someplace tropical. I used colorful clothes to enlighten some days. I really enjoyed this drawing because there were no mistakes and it all went so smoothly. Thank u so much for judging my photo and have a wonderful day.

My artwork shows our beautiful earth and all the nature that surrounds us. The sunshine of the sun, the mountains, and the flowing water along with the beautiful greenery. My family gets to experience and explore our wonderful planet.
