Artistic Anna

Anna has definitely taken an interest in drawing. She is more content than Celie to sit and draw for more than 5 minutes at a time. She will usually draw for about 20 or so. Celie is bored after 5 minutes. I think this is great. I think Anna will be my partner in crime when it comes to making "things."

However, Anna has grown beyond just her drawing capabilities as of late. She seems bored by the images in coloring books and tends to be more attracted to a blank canvas. Her preferred medium is plain paper and, well, our new hardwood floors. We are trying to break her of it, even though I know that experimentation is everything.

An Anna creation.This was the beginning. We thought it was kind of funny - so of course I had to take a picture. Well, now, she hides crayons (because we limit her access now) and pulls them out when our back is turned and goes to the corner and colors on the floor. Thank goodness for Mr. Clean pads and washable crayons.
