A few gifts from my tree...

"the love of 

Christmas 

...and purple."

ELEMENTS OF SELF - SELF ART

The love of purple and "sparklies"!

This weeks theme of Elements Of Self is “self art” where we get to do a self portrait using what ever medium we choose.  I like working with my hands and there is so much more I would like to learn, pottery, oil painting and creative art using fabric, but my hours looking after children does not leave much free time to get my own creative juices flowing. It seems my creative focus is primarily based on what one can do with finger paints and play dough. So for this prompt, I incorporated “self portraits”  as part of this weeks  daycare theme...

”FRIENDS MAKE US HAPPY!”

Body tracing is always a fun but somewhat squirmy activity especially if you have tickle spots or you are trying to trace a one year old...not an easy task. The kids enjoyed painting themselves and choosing stickers and sparklies to embellish their self portraits. I am including my little friends as they play a big part in defining who I am.

The Gang - Sydney, Kaiden, Elliot, Jonah, Me, and Kaidince...missing - Caeden

 With the addition of  leaves and pumpkins we will soon be painting, this mural will become a "Fall Fair."
