Rembrandt – van Goh – Monet – Lailah Lux

This kid wants to paint ALL the time. This weekend it was watercolors, and some new techniques. I handed her a straw and told her to blow into the wet paint. The delight on her face was priceless. She would pick up the straw and blow until spit was coming out the other end, delighted at the effect.

I have started hanging her paintings on one of the walls in my bedroom, and I have to say, it is my most favorite wall in the entire house, I smile every time I look at it. Now - if I could only get her to clean up her mess when she was finished without making a bigger mess. Soon enough.

And there is nothing better than a good old fashioned hand tracing.
