Art Friday: Trains

Art Friday: Trains

Last Friday we enjoyed lots of very cute bunnies (which I did for a young lady of five), this week its all about trains (for her brother), what a contrast!!

Not so cute and cuddly but very useful for getting us from point A to point B! 

Do you have a favourite topic you would like covered in Art Friday? If so, let me know. 

Have a lovely weekend :)

Of course, you can't have trains unless you include the passengers on the train too!

I hope you enjoyed the journey and I will end with the most famous train of all - Thomas!!

    1. Its funny how people are drawn to trains. My children didn't see a train for a number of years because we had no railway anywhere near us when they were little. Thomas was the only train they knew about!

  3. Hello Jo, Just loved this! I use to take the train often to see my daughter! I still miss it at times! I think you ought to do a post on the hats worn over the years, styles and size! You always do such an amazing job! You always give me food for thought! Hugs to you! Roxy
