First art lesson!

We are doing art on Wednesday afternoons. Last week I got a childrens book of famous art from the library, and the kids enjoyed looking at the paintings. After we looked through the book together I found the horse section in a Draw write now book that I got from the library. We are reading black beauty, so that's why I chose horses. Buster sketched the horse, and I sketched one for Sweetpea. When they were done I had them paint them with watercolors.

Oh, I love art! My second child is taking art from a professional art teacher, and it's really encouraged the rest of us to do a lot more art too. We've even gotten into sculpting recently!
