My husband is my hero

I have wanted to post pictures of some of my husband's work for a while because he is the real artist in our family. I in no way consider myself artistic, creative maybe but not artistic. I can't draw a stick figure and other crafty ventures for me are more learned than natural ability. My husband however, and this is where I begin to gush, oozes with artistic ability. I never cease to be amazed by what he can do. He is very modest about his talent and is his own toughest critic but I think everything he does is wonderful.  He has a regular job that pays the bills and provides insurance but in his spare time he paints.  He does custom painting on cars, motorcycles, helmets, mailboxes you name it. He would love to be able to do this work full time but insurance is so necessary when a member of the family has health problems.

Wow - that's impressive & beautiful work! But, don't sell yourself short, Autum. There is an art to sewing and putting fabric together - you have a great eye for it! :)

That's cool! I saw somebody on tv do this...I think it was a brewery helicoptor...was that him by any chance? It looks amazing!

Wow! Isn't my Daddy great? His technique with those flames has progressed a lot! I knew it would just take a little practice and he would have it down. I'm so proud!

Pppfffftttt.. I don't know what your talking about when you say you're not artistic.

I guess everyone has a talent of some sort and some are fortunate enough to realize it, and utilize it. They do this not only for the pleasure it brings them, but for the pleasure it brings to others. I admire the flame work your Husband does, but what I admire most is the genuine Love you must have for him. Congratulations to the both of you.
I operate an automotive center in San Antonio Texas, but my real Talent is making children believe in Santa, You see I am a real Bearded Santa and visit with as many children I can every year. but I keep the spirit alive everyday all year long, everywhere I go I see children looking and knowing that they just saw the real Santa.
I would very much like to have some work done on a boat that I recently purchased. Does your husband do that type of work? if so please contact me ...Thank You and Keep the Gleem in your eye!!!
