discussion Lucy's crazy spitfire! *updated with painting pics!*

She is really concentrating on that, it's great to see an artist at work.

Oh tut why is she not wearing an apron Dougie as I do when painting.


Because she is a lady and ladies do not splash paint about.


My 4 Grandsons do. Thickness of paint is essential. Getting paint


over granddad's garage was an imperative. Using up all the paint


was a goal.


So how do you do it Dougie. Lucy looks calm and in control.

I think just taking the time to try to explain why you do things helps but really I think mostly is down to her mood at the time. I think you need to give them appropriate things to do at appropriate times, i.e. mostly kicking her outside until later on in the day when she should be winding down! Maybe on this occasion I just got lucky!
