This morning bean Painted one of my melamine cups with nail polish… (luckily it was natural stuff so I think I can get it off) So I sat her down with her water colours and some paper.

She’s not painting for more than a minute when she tells me “mama I need a fluffy hat.”

“What do you mean a fluffy hat?” I inquire.

“The fluffy hat you wear when you make music.” It’s true I do put on a beret when I rock out to records on my bongos. So I was super proud and excited that she wanted to wear a beret while she painted. The mark of a serious artist! Or shall I say artiste!

She then started poking the dinosaurs with a needle……..

I believe this represents her inner turmoil.

She hung up her art on the fridge I like the juxtaposition of the magnets.

mixed media: dinosaur stickers, water colours on medium weight drawing paper.
