FINALE - ARTISTS IN BLOOM Gallery No. 2 - Sharing Children's Art Here On Steemit!!!
Welcome to the second FINALE of Artists In Bloom!!
ARTISTS IN BLOOM IS THE NEW INITIATIVE FOR SHARING
AND PROMOTING CHILDREN'S ART HERE ON STEEMIT!!
Children are incredibly creative
and generally more open to grander perspective than adults are,
as they have not been as heavily programmed to see life in a specific way.
I hope their creations will inspire you to act on sharing your children's art too,
so we can promote and support a large community of budding artists.
This week's finale highlights 6 artists:
@reyareyes, @qiqi-power, @noki-power, @tefi, Lauribel, and Jose David,
PRESENTING:
~~~~ "ARTISTS IN BLOOM" ~~~~

"QiQi's special story about LeLu, my best friend!"
by QiQi-Power (age 6),
daughter of @quinneaker and @truelovelives
![](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://s6.postimg.org/pct0tbbc1/IMG_E7561.jpg)
Once upon a time there was a girl named LeLu.
And a boy named Patrick.
They met at school, and soon they got to know each other.
They went on a date to a restaurant.
Soon they got married.
They were very happy and then they had children.
She is pregnant!
She went to the hospital to have her baby.
Here's the mommy and daddy's room.
Here is the baby's room....
with the window and the baby's dresser.
One day, a strange man who was a soccer player accidentally kicked the ball too far.
He went to go get the ball in the blueberry bush.
The blueberry bush was a little bit far from the soccer ball play yard.
He went to the blueberry bush and saw his ball.
On the way to get his ball, he saw the lady and man kissing.
He got jealous of the beautiful woman named Lelu.
The woman was once a girl that I know.
When she was a kid we were always friends.
The End.
QiQi says she doesn't feel she will ever have a baby in a hospital, but she hears lots of stories and realizes that's the way most people do it. She says "I wouldn't have a separate room for my baby either, because my baby would sleep with me." She likes to play the game of school, but has no interest in going because "I'm a free girl!" "Marriage isn't really my thing to do while I'm a kid, but maybe I will make the choice when I'm a grown up."
"You don't have to be married to love someone, or to share your life with someone." "I think I just have to make my own choice, and my choice is my choice." "I don't have to change my mind, and I don't have to let anyone bother me." "If I make a mistake, it isn't my reason to blame others for my mistakes. It's my own fault that I make mistakes. But I don't make mistakes all the time. But maybe sometimes I do."
Valentine's Day Love by @noki-power (age 4),
daughter of @quinneaker and @truelovelives

What a fantastic display of creation! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ IMPORTANT NOTE: For all who enter the Artists In Bloom Initiative. We may have an exciting opportunity to exhibit these works in a year-end finale Gallery (such as Steemfest3!!!) If you want your art to be considered for such an opportunity, you must submit the art via this form. If you do not fill out the form, the child's art will be excluded from any such exhibit. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
and Jose David
I'd like to encourage you all to visit these young Steemians and show them your support,
and help a child you know to enter his/her art for our Gallery No. 3 - beginning tonight!!THANK YOU ARTISTS FOR SHARING YOUR TALENT WITH US!
I love art but it is especially nice to see children creating art in play!
A wonderful project @everlove!
Honored to be bringing it to Steemit. Thanks for your support @quinneaker.
Look at all these talented little beings! Expressing themselves through creation! Love it :-)
Me too!! Such a great idea @kimberleighfl. So many kids will benefit form your instigation of this initiative.
I LOVE that this young artists initiative exists. @everlove, I cannot imagine a more perfect person to fill the role of curator for such an art collection. What a perfect marriage of your interests and experience! Thank you for holding space for this to happen!
And kudos to the many other grown ups who have submitted art on behalf of little ones in their lives too.
How wonderful!
And, GO @qiqi-power and @noki-power!
How divine it is that I just so happen get to play with your children and share together some of the things we all love most! It's easy to host and hold space for such brilliance and I am honored to be a part of the expansion of art in this community.
I love that @qiqi-power and @noki-power are so prolific in their art that they can be a potent part of this initiative. Thanks for being a part of it too @truelovelives!

Thanks @everlove for opening this space, to show the children's art, my daughter is very excited about this initiative, and every day she is opening her imagination to create new things.
That's awesome @mirye. We'll be happy to showcase her art anytime she wishes to share it with us.
Many thanks to @everlove for this beautiful initiative, thanks to you, my children are excited to create new artistic things to share in the social network that their mommy participates in.
They will be very happy when I tell them that their works of art were appreciated in this contest. Again many congratulations and thanks for giving us the opportunity to participate in such a beautiful contest.
It's indeed my pleasure and honor to hold space for something of such great value. I'm glad your kids are inspired to participate and to continue to create and share their expression. I'm grateful you found me and are bringing them to Steemit to. Together we can do great things.
Fabulous!!!! i love the truth in childrens art... It's the way they see the world... Anything can be anything. Thank you @everlove for bringing the children into the ever growing world of art. Namaste.
I am honored @paniopan. And what a blessing it is to have you here to witness the magnificence they have to share. Thanks for your support.
Thank you @everlove... Our children are our future, we need to nurture their love and freewill. It's important they grow up as who they are. If we guide them through the arts and allow them to see the beauty in honest expression, their nature will manifest a beautiful future. Love is light... Light is within... If we allow the childs light to shine, we allow love to light up the world. Namaste.
Aho!!!! Well said @paniopan. That's what we're here for!
: ) Love and light... Love and happy happenings @everlove... : )
Awwwwnnnnn... Wow... This is amazing. Creativity indeed. God bless the children. Lol... Dese pen drawings are really funny. Weldone @everlove More grease to your elbow
thanks @oredebby! So glad you're enjoying this Gallery. I appreciate the support and I'm sure the children will too. I agree---the drawings are awesome!
This is such a great initiative, Shellie. Since the moment my Raven could hold a drawing implement I have been totally in awe of the free expression of childhood art. Some of those earliest creations remain my favourites to this day, some 15 years or so later! I really, really enjoyed looking through these children's art. Beautiful, one and all! Jay x
It is true beauty the way children can just share what comes through without ideas and supposed-tos getting in the way! So glad you have such fond memories, as do I. Grateful for the opportunity to share these children's works with the greater community. Thank you for the support Jay. <3
Beautiful works that have presented children, very beautiful all, congratulations to all who have presented their works.
Thank you very much dear friend @everlove for including children in art
I wish you a wonderful week
Thanks for the comment @jlufer. I'm grateful for the opportunity to hold space for these works and to share them with you.
