Still Life with Tacky Souvenirs, Olivia WRIGHT, circa 2012

First, let me get this off my chest, it drives me nuts how last names are capitalized here.  I'm Anne Wright.  Not Anne WRIGHT!  I like my last name and all, but jeesh.


My older daughter (self portrait, above) has taken an interest in photography.  She loves to shoot photos when I do.  She also loves grabbing the camera when I'm elsewhere and filling up the memory card with pictures of:

computer screens,
living room furniture,
stuffed animals,
Barbie dolls,
her sister,
favorite toys,
and our house,

among other things.

Here in France, she's taken a number of shots that I thought I'd share here.  My personal favorite and the title of this blog entry is:



This one's in the "preparation for my masterpiece" series.




Woodstock and George the Monkey are Francophiles.



This is the painting that looms over our dining room table.  I love the splotchy brushwork and colors, but wish the painter had chosen a less-modern building for the background.  Olivia's fond of it, so she wanted to have a photo of it.


I'm not sure what Helena's trying to express here, but apparently it was photo-worthy to Olivia.  Good enough for me.
