We got this awesome easel from Bethany! Gwen has been in heaven every since. She loves to use chalk, paint or use crayons on the paper that we went to Ikea and bought. Just about anyone that she sees she makes something for them.
The first time we used the paint we didn't have a paint brush or something to dump the paint onto. So she just used a sponge brush and dipped it into whatever paint she wanted. Of course the paint got mixed up but it was no big deal.
We waited until Penelope took a nap since she can stand up and reach the tray with the paint on it.
It was hard to get a great picture of Gwen's face since the easel was in the way, haha, but you can kind of see her concentrated look here. I love it!! It is such a Brett face.
After alittle bit she just used her hands to spread some of the paint, it really is finger paint that we have anyway.
All done and waiting for it to be dried. Gwen gave this first creation to Aunt Kami. The bottom right corner has a shovel and so Gwen deemed this the Shovel Painting.
Trust me this was just the first of soooo many other art creations she has done. She loves it tons.

And Aunt Kami is grateful for the picture! Love it and it's still above my bed! Thanks again Gwen-ster!
Kora just loves creating too. We want to get her the easel at Ikea too. Love it. I wanted to get it for her last year but we were living in the apartment and had no room....lots of room now. I know she'll just love it. I'm glad Gwen loves it. How fun! I love the shovel picture...amazing how they can create something without actually meaning to. Unless she actually meant to?
An easel is on my kids Xmas list. You are a brave mom to do paint even washable. I am so mean. :)
