bThe Smylie clan have produced some talented people during the years and this one is no different. This Smylie-Merrill is a very talented artist who loves to think outside the box. She is a very unpredictable artist and has done some stunning work.
The words that mythology have mythologic creatures throughout them. The painting in red is of Jimmy Page of Led Zeplin and she has been invited to enter that in another juried art show. The lion is lead-glass mosaic. The paper cut sculpture is a spider web over and over that she took hours to cut out. The "iron thing" is a winged figure (bird, person?) that is really expressive when you look closer at it. She wants to go to BYU and has been accepted for the summer classes and will go out to Utah for a few months to see if she likes that and then decide on long term schooling out there or closer to home.

Wow Sariah! You are definately your Mother's daughter. Congratulations on the art show. Love to you all XOXO
Sariah is comming out to Utah this summer? This is news to us. Cool! We're looking forward to it. Let us know what your plans are. We look forward to having another aunt to pamper Janae. :)
I wish! I tried but didn't have 'it'. the Smylie Art Gene bipassed me instead I got the Smylie Caring Gene.
Just a note to Dan coz I cant see his blog : I'm sure your baby is all that because she is a Smylie Great-grand but in australia you would not have been able to call your daughter Janae because she is a character off Neighbours, the aussie soap, and she is not well liked she is coloquially known as a 'bush pig' NOT good. On the other hand she's a fighter and always looking to improve her social staus, through marriage. Go Janae ;)
Oh, tell Sariah to just make up her mind right now to stay and love BYU. Go cougars!!
Well done Sariah. All the best with your summer plans. xx
