My time with my girls is so precious to me. I want our time together to be memorable for them, moments that fill their hearts with warmth and love. I strive to make each visit special, filling our days with laughter, snuggles, good food and teachable experiences. I want to share my limited knowledge with them, passing along to them my joys and loves, things that bring pleasure to me, and hopefully to them also.
Aria has been showing a great interest in art and does a good job at it. I am in no way an artist, although I do love art and I truly enjoy creating art in many forms, so I thought that art would be something that we could share and learn together.
I saw this picture on Pinerest and thought it would be a good painting for Aria to do. The painting was done in three layers. The first layer was the background. She mixed three colors together and painted the canvas, then went over the paint-while it was still wet-with a butter yellow.
After the first layer was dry she used an old plastic pizza cutter taken from her play-doh box and ran it through brown paint and made the stems. She then used a small brush to make branches.
After the second layer dried she used a sponge dabber to make her flowers.
She had a lot of fun doing this painting. Part of the lesson was for her to know that little mistakes, and clumps of paint are OK.
She gifted her mama with her masterpiece.
“Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.” 1 Timothy 4:14
