An Artistic Eye

On Friday we decided it would be fun to let Evelyn make some artwork for her room. So, we went to Michael's and bought some finger paints and a big sheet of white paper. When we got home we stripped her down, threw some paint on the paper and let her go at it. She had a blast. She was slipping and sliding all over the place, making a total mess and loving every minute of it.
As you can see she had no problem jumping in and getting her hands dirty.

she didn't even attempt to eat the paint, which was great because that was the only thing Dave and I were worried about.

I love this bottom right picture. She looks so intent. She knows exactly what she wants this paint to be and she is concentrating had to make it perfect.
She wanted to take a break for a minute.

Back to work. Evelyn didn't actually get any paint on her face but I thought she need some so I attacked her with the red.

Here is the finished masterpiece. Now we are going to frame it and hang it in her room for all to see. i am so proud of my little artist. She did an impressive job.
