I was inspired to take up painting as a complete beginner during the 2020 pandemic. The arrival of my first grandchild, Naarah, presented me with the perfect opportunity to channel my efforts into something that I could share with her as she grew. I painted a series of images for a number counting book, some of which have deep meaning within my family. The book can be used as a first number primer for adults and young children to read together. Enjoy.
