We broke in our new art station table today and rather than flinch at the vibrant color spatter on the
freshly painted white, I breathed out freedom after a long inhale of creativity.
I love watching children concoct art in any form and I'm always looking for ways to enhance the creative energy in our home.
(Bea was so proud of her beautiful first ever painting!)
(She wouldn't stop! Looks like we have another artist in the family!)
(Elka, always creating, got a new easel and acrylic paints...keeping her very busy.)
I haven't seen India so quiet, still, or enthralled in some time...in and of itself worth the entire project!
The boys got in there too and we all discussed one of my most important art lessons:
"There are NO mistakes in art!"
A strict rule around here...We always make lemonade from lemons, turn frowns upside down,
etc., seeing any artistic "mistake" as simply a detour to a new concept, design, or plan.
They bought it!
Nova handcrafted portraits of each sibling (which we laminated) so we could hang drying paintings by each one.
I absolutely LOVE children's artwork!! It's the best...
...and messy hands are beautiful...
"He has made everything beautiful in its time."
