During Grayson's nap yesterday, it was too rainy to go outside and play in the yard, so Gordon and I decided we would do an art project with the googly eyes we found in my old art supply box. My thought was to create some fun Easter paintings to hang on the fridge and liven them up with the eyeballs. Here's an example of what I had in mind....
I thought Gordy would follow suit and create something seasonal also, but he opted for an entirely different theme -- ALIENS. He has been very curious about outer space lately, asking things like, "What do aliens eat?" "Who could live on the sun?" "Where do Easter bunnies live -- in outer space?" "What is a black hole?" etc.... He's mentioned becoming an astronaut someday...right along with a farmer, construction worker, and a cowboy. Anyway, here is the final product on Gordy's googly-eyed art creation. (At Gordy's request, I helped glue the eyes on and added some sketching to help it come alive).
What fun to get a glimpse of children's imagination through their art!
