In May, Amelie started taking art classes at the Hein Academy of Art in Salt Lake. We knew that she had an interest in art and talent and so I researched a bit and found this art studio. The combination of excellent instruction with Amelie’s natural patience, attention to detail, and talent have been amazing! This is her first finished piece, a self-portrait in charcoal. Her teacher really focused on teaching her about shadows and working with them. Amelie paid close attention and spent lots of time on this project. We were all blown away by the end result.

Needless to say, we will continue supporting our sweet artist as she develops this talent. I can’t wait to see where this takes her!
