Art

I recently discovered a store called Xenos, which seems to be Amsterdam's answer to the Christmas Tree Shops.  They have a terrific craft aisle, so while I was there buying picture frames for M's school photo gifts to P's family, I thought M could do some paintings on canvas for them as well.  I bought 6 small canvases, a stubby paint brush perfect for preschool hands, a set of 12 tubes of acrylic and a nifty palette (a la Vincent Van Gogh).

Uncle David playing football

A daddy and baby dragon.

Mixed purple and gray.

His paintings were basically experiments in color mixing, and two of the three he did today had stories (one was a dragon, obviously inspired by the color he mixed, and the other was Uncle David playing football.  The video shows a little bit of his process.
