Payton's Art Show

Tonight was Payton's big night!  The studio where she takes art lessons hosted an art show.  All of the pieces that Payton has been working so hard on for the last few weeks were on display for everyone to see.  Here's our little budding artist.
Payton
Each week at art lessons, the kids learn about a different artist or different methods of art.  Then, they do art work modeled after that form.  This summer, Payton will be learning about Leonardo DiVinci.  Her class will be painting pictures while they are laying on their backs.  The canvases will be taped to the underside of a table.  I'm sure that Payton is going to LOVE that!  Here's a look at some of her pieces on display tonight.

Recycled Art


More recycled art work - I'm not sure which artist this is modeled after.

Seahorses - Have I mentioned that both she and Addi love them?

My favorite - Payton's water color piece
I really enjoyed seeing Payton's work.  She does such a great job!  Here's my four favorite kiddos all in purple after the art show.  Evan doesn't think the stripes on his shirt are purple.  He sees it as dark blue, a little reminder of his color blindness.

On Saturday, Payton is entering one of her paintings into a contest at the Route 66 Blow Out.  I can't wait to see how it does!!!

  2. I love your kids all in purple (or you know, blue for Evan) and my favourite pieces are the watercolour and the seahorses. Addi has way more talent than I do!

  3. Yes, I definitely think you have a budding artist on your hands. So glad to see her talent being cultivated. I am thinking Picasso for the recycled art face. I love the seahorse one!
