Water Colour Castles {Virtual Fridge}
This Week
This was Sir N's second attempt at water colours. It's mixed media. We learned about Joseph Mallord William Turner and followed the tutorial in The Usborne ART Treasury on page 90. We used artistic licence and chose to paint anything rather than the suggested theme.
Featured This Week
This weeks feature is from A Learning Journey: D is for Daddy Date. Alyssa and her Daddy spent the day together creating this gem. Be sure to read about their adventure.
Your Turn
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.

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 co-host this weekly meme.
