Someday, the altered art you make today will be
old, faded, falling apart, and someone else will salvage the bits and use them
in new altered art.It's the best that any piece of art can hope for

Half term, so no crafting for me but....



crafting for the kids!
Grandma has requested some works of Art from her 5 Grandchildren to adorn her walls... here are the 'works of art' from my two....
As you can see Edward (6) has gone for mums' style of Mixed media LOL..... Grass made from felt.. hedge from tissue stuck on the canvas, painted sky and a tree made from a bit of wood veneer that dad brought home from work! For those of you who are artistically challenged, i will have to explain that the blobs at the bottom are molehills and the blue patch is a doormat that leads to a house that you can't see.................





Georgina (10) tells me she is going for a simple stylised approach........... LOL I wish I was taught art at school like they are these days, it's much more free these days they are allowed to express themselves how they want... not how the teacher thinks they should 'draw'
I am very proud of both of them and I'm sure Grandma will be as well!
