Canvas Is Therapy

“There is one thing one has to have: either a soul that is cheerful by nature, or a soul made cheerful, by work, love, art and knowledge.” Friedrich Nietzsche

Jane age 7.

 Jane painted the above two paintings for her dance teachers. We used some Degas to get us started. The top one has yellow dots because her ballet dance is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Jacob age 4.

Jacob picked out the leopard for his painting. We glued it onto his canvas together, then I went downstairs. When I came back he had already painted the black background and grey dots totally on his own. I love how he did his initials. 

Charlie age 5.

 I was truly impressed with this one.
