My daughter LOVES skull art. I am so glad we got out of the Watchtower when she was 11, she is 18 now. I remember once cutting our service short so I could drop her off for art classes and the elders talked to my husand about it. My hubby was going to tell our daughter to quit the classes and he and I got into a HUGE screaming fight over it. I told him over my DEAD BODY!
That is when Ray was a little closed minded. Now he is open to more things. I paid for art classes for our daughter out of my house money when I was not working, and made sure you always had plenty of art supplies in the house. The "friends" used to tell me it was a waste of time, but I persisted in supporting my daugher. I even let her draw at meetings, and we got "talked" to about that too.
It was worth the fight though. I am glad I stuck to MY guns. Peace, Lilly
