Wax crayon and watercolour flowers

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

My daughter (who is eight) said about her painting, "You have to like it because if you hate, it that means you hate me." I understand, art is so personal, a little bit of your soul, but if you are going to show it to anyone, even close friends, you need to unlearn that. Art is personal to them too, that means what they like can be wildly different to what you do, even if you are very good. Whatever you do is valid regardless of others. And for the record, I love all my daughter's paintings but they, and she would still be good even if I didn't!

I have included my daughter's painting.
