The Virtual Refrigerator {Claude Monet Inspired Art}

Welcome to the Virtual Fridge a weekly art meme where we can hang our children's art on a virtual fridge. This meme was started by Jennifer over at A Glimpse of our Life who kindly invited three other bloggers to take turns hosting this weekly meme.

Your hosts are

• Jennifer at A Glimpse of our Life - 1 August
• Kym at Homeschool Coffee Break - 8 August
• Nikki at Angels of Heart - 15 August
• Chareen over here - 22 August

Thank you to Heather over at Only Passionate Curiosity for creating some new graphics / grab it buttons for our meme.

We recently spent a month studying the life and work of Claude Monet.  We used a lot of FREE resources on the web and books from the library.


On YouTube I found this great tutorial to Paint like Monet: A Beginners Guide


This is the result of Sir N's effort

"I am following Nature without being able to grasp her. I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers." Claude Monet

I invite you to take some photo's of your children's artistic pursuits put them in a post and link up with me I would love to come over and see the wonderful art your children have enjoyed doing. 

Blessings
Chareen

 Welcome to Tuesdays Treasures.  I started these posts as a way of sharing great books in honour of my friend in New Zealand who would arrive with the treasures she had unearthed at her weekly trip to the library!

There are so many wonderful books out there hiding on shelves so I invite you to blog about a book on your shelf, one you're reading or one you found at the library. Grab the button for your post and add a link to your post below. I would love to read about your treasures.
