Dd has one of her artworks on exhibit at the Royal Scottish Academy’s Annual Open Exhibition. I don’t think I’m BU to be so proud of her, although IRL she doesn’t think it’s worth mentioning to friends! She’s the youngest in the show.

Fabulous, and rightly proud. I'll look out for this.

It's absolutely wonderful to see your children growing up and achieving their dreams. Well done to your DD!

That’s incredible! Well done to your DD.

Amazing, that's a huge achievement!

You'd never be unreasonable to be proud of any of your child's achievements. including minor ones.

Wow you must be so proud!!! She is super talented.

Absolutely amazing OP, what a talent your daughter has! I would be so so proud too.
