Obsessed with Art

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.

Colorful paints


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.

creating art


We waited until Penelope took a nap since she can stand up and reach the tray with the paint on it.

paint brush??


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.

So Concentrated


After alittle bit she just used her hands to spread some of the paint, it really is finger paint that we have anyway.

Messy hands


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.

Finished


Trust me this was just the first of soooo many other art creations she has done. She loves it tons.

My Bedroom - day 17

My Bedroom - day 17


This painting was supposed to be hung above my couch but it did not look good there much to my disappointment. I picked out this photograph and asked my Mom to paint it since I love her paintings and I much prefer to have real art in my house, so it is my fault that I thought it would look good. Good thing this morning I thought to hang it above Brett's dresser and it looks great! I added one of my favorite vases to the mix and we are all set, now I just need to get some flowers in the vase.

Thanks Mom so much for taking the time to paint this picture for our birthday's it really is beautiful.
