Gather 'round for a heartwarming tale that unfolds as I, your host, welcome two of the most charming young artists I know—my granddaughters, Franny and Jojo. Our canvas is Brewtifully Made, where the colors of imagination come to life in strokes of watercolor and splashes of paint. Six-year-old Franny unveils her love for watercolor art, illustrating the world as she sees it with vibrant hues and fluid expressions. Jojo, at the tender age of three, prefers the tactile sensation of paint between her fingers, smearing joy across paper with every touch. Their discourse on sunflowers and the magical axolotl paints a picture of childhood wonder, while favorite cartoons spark laughter and lead us down a path of whimsical creativity.

In this episode, we share more than just art; we share life's mosaic of experiences.  As we sketch out the importance of embracing new endeavors, our conversation becomes a vibrant reminder of the impact we can have on each other—inspiring listeners to pick up a brush, a pen, or even a new perspective. Thank you, dear audience, for lending us your ears and joining us on this journey of discovery. As you gear up for the weekend, carry with you the inspiration from today's episode, and remember, there's always another masterpiece waiting to be created on Brewtifully Made!

This week's doodle - Seeds and a glimpse at Great Grandma doodling as well as Grandpa working on a drawing too!
