Happy Easter

I don't think there is anything cuter than 4 year old art work. Love this bunny!

Scratch Foam Block Prints

I saw this awesome art project on a blog and immediately starting planning my version of it. Lucy was just starting to draw some pretty amazing things so it was perfect timing to capture some of her art work. Looks pretty impressive, doesn't it? It's actually a fairly easy project. In a nutshell, you draw a picture into styrofoam with pencil, paint the styrofoam, press painted styrofoam onto paper. That's it. Easy. I can't wait to make one of these with Georgia.

My favourite picture Lucy drew was of the eagle. Can you find it?

Tiny Art

Do you know the website called Tiny Showcase? Friends of mine from work introduced me to the site and I became slightly obsessed with it. Each week artists create a small run of "tiny" art - usually available for reasonable prices.

This got me thinking that I would like some art work for Lucy's room. So, I asked friends and family to create a "tiny piece of art" that we could hang in the baby room. We supplied the canvases and the rest was up to everyone else. We were pretty pleased with the end results and Lucy now has a bunch of original art! Hard to pick which one is my favourite but I do like the bunny one from Christine and the birds from Meriah. A special mention goes to Julie's umbilical clip flower.
