watercolor on paper 17 x 22 |
So my boys were really excited about this still life, can you imagine why? Steven, my 4 yr old, couldn't wait until I was done photographing this one, so he could get his hands on the loot, and Sam, my 1 yr old, could not understand why he couldn't get the giant candy corns off of the watercolor paper. The whole thing is very fun and Halloweeny! I'm going to use this as my October entry for the Artists Helping Artists, monthly painting
challenge. The challenge inspired me to do themed paintings for each month, the idea being that at the end of a year you have art to put in a calendar. In addition to that I think it's pretty great to have revolving art. How fun to keep it fresh and have 12 months art.
Don't forget to check out my incredibly talented friend Crystal Cook's blog. She is having a fantastic contest where she is giving away an 8 x 10 watercolor portrait of your choice, click
here for details. Also, please let her know that I sent you her way:)
Steven is still on a crayon kick, since school started. Here is his latest creation. It looks like there is a red heart, too cute. On another note, I'm probably the only Mom at preschool that was running late this morning because the light was great in my kitchen window and I had to photograph my newest still life. Oh, well, Steven will have something to talk to his therapist about when he's older:)
