Meet My Mom

I want to introduce you to the person who inspired and encouraged my creativity at a very young age and continues to be one of my biggest supporters... my mom, Shari Haufschild. She does amazing watercolors; see for your self...

It was my mom who put the art show together. She did all the planning, got the location, did all the advertising, did lots of printouts for show pieces, setup (my hubby, dad and I did help with that part) and then tear down (all the artists helped with that) and got all the display parts back were needed. It was definitely a lot for one person to handle but she did amazing!



Ok, now for a closer look at her artistic talent! :)
Her pieces are even better in person. The one above has such an energy to it and I love the birds. Then the one below is so detailed and has great depth! She has lots of beautiful paintings, these were just a couple I had on my computer.

And my all time favorite, a book she wrote and illustrated with her watercolors for my daughters first birthday!!! I was shocked... for one I didn't know she wrote stories, and two the illustrations are fabulous! Kaelyn of course loves the book too! I'm really hoping to work with her to get some more smaller books made so people can purchase them for their special little ones on etsy. The story and illustrations are absolutely precious!



I hope you enjoyed seeing a little bit of her work. I have to say I'm certainly blessed to have her as my mom. I'm also super excited to take her out on a mother daughter day tomorrow. We're having professional massages done, going out to eat and then off to look at art! Yay!!!


I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and to all you mom's, Happy Mother's Day... you definitely deserve a nice relaxing day! ♥

My mom is one of my biggest "life" supporters, too. So precious to have such wonderful support from someone who matters so much to us. Thanks for sharing your talented mom. Beautiful work and to share herself with Kaelyn is such a precious gift, too.
