I think it looks pretty cool! We may do new pictures every year or so because I think bigger canvases would look good. I actually prefer the more abstract artwork, but Hannah really wanted to paint a 'picture'. Maybe next time I can get her to do something with less structure.
I got a great idea from my friend Renee. I've been wanting some artwork for our living room for a long time, and I'd thought about buying a huge canvas for Hannah to paint. Renee's artwork inspired me to do something a little bit different. I bought three small canvases and three colors of paint and let each kid paint a picture. They are currently drying, but when I figure out how to mount them I'll be posting a pic of the wall.
Clean baby...
PAINTY baby!!
By the way, I don't recommend this sort of painting with a 10 month old baby if you are the only adult at home!!
Here are a couple of pictures of the kids earlier in the day
I was so impressed with this picture that Hannah just drew, that I scanned it and blogged it! I'm not even sure where the inspiration for this surfer pic came from... I guess when you're an artist these things just happen!!
