We do some form of art almost every day. Bruce loves it. I think his love comes from the colors he gets to use. In fact, he refers to paint as colors, and when he brings me the bottles of paint he says, "Look! Colors!" Here are some of the things we've been working on recently.
These are crayon drawings.
And Bruce presenting his picture
Working on the TyReck
The finished product. He requested a tree, and then wanted to use the pencil. Unfortunately he used it on the still wet paint of the TyReck. Oops.
Using the left over orange paint.
The finished product.
Still using the orange paint, but he got a red pen in addition to the green pencil. We have a pumpkin in the house for Bruce's mom who wants to make some of her (absolutely amazing) from-scratch pumpkin pie. Bruce is pretty taken with it. He's been requesting pumpkins to draw/paint on.
Finished "pukins"
After the orange paint, green pencil, and red pen Bruce wanted a car to paint. He chose green this time. I added the video to show you guys the stippling technique he uses. You can really see the results in the pictures of him using up the rest of the orange paint.
Painting from another day:
Bruce used a lot of techniques on this piece. There is a little finger painting, some stippling, and some stamping with the other side of the paint brush. He liked this, but he much preferred this:
Turns out he really likes mixing colors. We'll do a marbleizing art project soon. I think he'll love it. Call me crazy, but I see an abstract map of the world. Canada is green, China is red, the Americas are blue (we're missing South America. Sorry to everyone who just lost homes) and Africa is brown. Am I the only one who sees that?
Hope everybody out there is having a great day. Sending our love to all the family members.
