Diminutives: A History (by Natalia, The Resident Historian)

Amaya Papaya (n.)- Technically, not a shorter version of her name, Amaya really loves papaya or the rhyme is just extremely tempting. 

Hil Bil (ly) (n.)- A clear origin. Head scarves and large pants, this one seems to be literal.

Ami (n.) - Remincent of friend in french or maybe, just baby talk.

Talia (n.)  A quick snappy version of my name said, of course, in a spanish accent. No origin needed.

Autter Tot (n.) We all like food. So sue us.

Their Artistic Talents


I have decided now to focus on their artistic capabilities. I have highlighted a few of their special gifts. I have an inspiring passionate bunch.

Amaya: Musical, a born mover, and spatially brilliant. I would have her stage my performance or choreograph that new play I wrote. Also, need someone to take dance shots or anything beautiful in general? um. Amaya.

Hilary: If I was ever in a jiffy for research or even a very keen eye on artistic composition, I would go, Hilary. Also, discussion on anything important? Hilary. She’s got were its at.

Amelia: Need a poem that resonates with the very core of your being? Need inspiration that will lift you up and allow you to soar with flying colors? Or even a buddy to romp through the forest and give you creative ideas? Uh. Amelia.
She will listen. She will write. She will excite.

Me: I am here, situated among the colors and little black words. I can try anything but I would prefer it to revolve around writing, storytelling, movement, drawing, or planning. However, you can try me. I won’t say, I won’t try.

Autumn: Need a fashion editorial? Need inspiration through perfected situated photographs made into a collage what will help you define your stylistic attitude? Great. Also, don’t forget she can take those photographs if you need to. Don’t feel hesitant to ask. Additionally, maybe you can take a cue from her room. Those posters sure look good.

They are all highly competent people and can handle many artist needs. I bet you will find all of them have an outfit on that will rock your socks off. Because that’s what they do best--- be themselves.

This is a blog authored by five completely different human beings all wrapped up in one wonderful sisterhood.

Amaya and Natalia are sisters.

Hilary, Amelia, and Autumn are sisters.

But we use the title of Five Sisters because as we are two families of siblings involved in one long-lasting childhood friendship. 


Posts will showcase the unique artistic perspective of all five.

Cheers!
