Aren't we all just grateful for WALL ART?
What constitutes wall art? Is it graffiti found on walls in inner cities, urban districts, small town businesses? Is it framed art that is hung on your walls inside your home? Is it pictures that your children draw for you and then you can't part with and display OR is it the crayon and markers that your children so willingly draw on your walls with, then of course there is that vinyl lettering all over some of your walls!? We all post, repost and share art on our Walls on Facebook, Goggle+, MySpace (in the old days!) etc. etc. so wall art is an important way for us to express feelings, emotions, life's journeys.
When I would visit my grandmother in Blanding Utah she had a guest book that every person that came to her home signed and maybe left a message or an address or a phone number I always, as a child was impressed that she could know who when and how often she had visitors. I had a guest book for a long while, a tradition that unfortunately somewhere along the line I did not carry on with.
I totally support the kids at home in there own expression of who they are in there rooms...
When my son left home to serve a mission is Bilboa Spain we followed him daily on this wall of art.
In a home we lived in I had a wall that anyone that came over signed like just like the traditional guest book, maybe that's where I lost the tradition - (If you move you lose that guest book so keep a guest book). As a family, We loved that wall as you can see here when we left that house we documented that wall with pics. It was one of the saddest parts of leaving that house, it was our memories and expression of our love, experiences, friends and family that visited our home.
My niece has a wall she painted with chalk for wall art in her home I love it!!!
