My little Picasso

I am EXTREMELY excited...

Mikenna is really starting to love art... drawing, and especially painting!

The preschool teacher in me wants to run out and buy every art supply known to man (although I'm pretty sure I already own most).

Lately she has been taking a little bowl from her kitchen and a little whisk and pretending to paint the pantry door. She does this constantly.

So I thought, what better time for an easel?! YAY!

Once we got it home and put together Mikenna tested out the chalkboard side.

She colors with each and every piece of chalk.

I love it... we end up with a very colorful picture each time :]

Then I broke out the paints and brushes. 

Even though she's never painted with a brush, she knew exactly what to do.

I love how focused she is.

We spent hours painting!

While Mikenna was painting I would say, "can you paint with blue (or red, yellow, etc) now?" And sure enough she would find the right one each time. Smart girl!

I can't get enough of that little face.

I ended up with a beautiful painting that will be hanging in my house very soon.

I love painting with my cute little Picasso!
