    Hello Garden Stewers! I am new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Andrew Kenyon and I am a home owner in Saint Augustine Florida. Yes, it's true... St. Augustine grass in Saint Augustine NEVER stops growing! I could mow my grass every 3 days if I wanted it to always have that nicely trimmed look. I'm also a portrait painter and specialize in portraits of children. I got my start however, painting portraits of pets and just finished a head and shoulder portrait of our dog Lily just last week. Take a look.
    Looking forward to 'Stewing' with you!

    Welcome to the stew

    You seem to be quite an accomplished artist. I could not even draw a stickman if I wanted to. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

    Welcome to our forums Andrew from West Lothian in Scotland.

    Your portrait of Lily is amazing. You've certainly captured her perfectly on canvas. What medium do you use for your paintings?

    You have three gorgeous children. The photograph of them with Lily should be hung in a special place in your home so that everyone can see it.

    I look forward to seeing more of your work and getting to know you. :-D

    Okay, but somtimes you better be careful what you ask for. Asking an artist
    to show his work is liking asking a race car driver if he wants to test the latest
    ferrari. :- )
