Lola came by for a few hours this afternoon while her parents went shopping. So i thought i would get out the crayons and try to teach her to...well...scribble. It turns out she would rather be a sculptor than a painter. First she had to inspect all aspects of the paper....
Then fold the edges.......
make it a real 3
dimensional piece...To get a real feel for her work, she even tasted it in a few places......Until....
Voila! It was finished! And here is the final result.....
She is definitely a minimalist! Maybe she would prefer collage.....
Lola has a new table and chair set her Aunt Kate gave her. Whenever she comes to visit we bring her table out into the middle of the room and we get her crayons and a nice fresh sheet of drawing paper out
Lola gets right to work. She draws mostly with her left hand...
but when that one gets tired she draws with her right hand... Her favorite things to draw are circles and "shahdies" which is her word for flowers...
The young artist sits back and reviews her work...
Time for a snack break. Lola shares her fish crackers with her adoring fans, Zinnie and Polly
and then sits down to read a good book... Now, if only her Grandma can be more disciplined and sit at her art table to work every day....
