{painting together}


so fun! nothing grand on the artistic level, but the time together on it was honestly priceless. evan was quite disappointed when he saw the ipod santa brought him instead of the art supplies. there had been a switch, ipod from santa / art supplies from mommy and dad that he had yet to open. he has been chomping at the bit to work on something. so, i sketched him out a simple christmas tree and painted the lines for him and he dove in. he was beyond giggly and excited throughout the process. he will add his name and voila! a priceless painting for me! i'd take this over a monet any day!
absolutely adore it, but enjoyed our time at the kitchen table and his easel much more. he has several projects lined up, so he may have to have a gallery viewing soon.
now, we're off to play in the snow. first snow of 2011!
