Artists in Time Out

Making Memories and Art

 

Our visit to our son's family in Utah was wonderful but I ended up in time out.

 

We took a time out to  create some art

and 

memories.

 

Did you think I was in some sort of trouble?

 

We had some pretty cool paper I got at Preston Art Center,

in Louisville, KY.

It's lined like first grade paper on the bottom and it's plain on the top, so you can paint a picture and then tell a story about it.

I've never used water color before, (because I'm afraid of it),

so we did a fair amount of playing.

 

Karen, my granddaughter drew a lot of her favorite things and painted them.

Then she drew a picture of her mom behind the house.

She wrote on her paper "There's a mom behind the house".

She was much more profound than she knew.

 

I also bought one of those water color brushes that has the water in it.

That was lots of fun.

 

More on those later.
