art is life
Earth without art is just... eh.
When my kids are creating art, they are the happiest. Whenever they are driving me crazy I get the art supplies out! It saves us all. I feel like it is so important for my kids to have a creative outlet that they can just... BE. They need to be able to bring their imaginations to life.
We set up a HUGE roll of paper on the driveway and we used Crayola washable tempera paint. This stuff is the best. It is a must that it is washable.
It was so fun to see the painting come together. They were inspired by Jackson Pollack and I really think they nailed it. So many different and beautiful parts to the painting. J and K's favorite part was playing "find my hands in the paint". They had the best time doing this, but I think it had a lot to do with the fact that we could be outside. October is my favorite month in Las Vegas!
