Painting By Addi
















Nothing can inspire art work better then a crisp Autumn day. After a brisk morning walk, Addison and I decided to paint. I found some really cute canvases and acrylic paint at the Dollar Tree. When I asked Addison if she wanted to paint she was thrilled with the idea. After I striped her of clothes, I placed her in her chair and the artistic juices just started flowing. She had so much fun slopping paint all over her tiny canvas. She mixed the paint and told me the colors as she used them. She was especially fond of red and yellow. I really enjoyed watching her paint in every direction, using any of the colors she wanted, getting good and messy. She kept reporting that her hands were messy. I had to keep assuring her it was OK and we would wash up at the end. The final product was nothing short of a masterpiece.
