Our Budding Artist

Kaitlin took art lessons from her school art teacher. She took lessons twice a month from January to May. Here are some the projects she has completed.

This was her first project. She had to grid a photo of herself and transfer it to a larger grided paper. It had to be traced onto tracing paper and transferred to the finished paper. It was a lenghty process.









The squirrel was a shading technique she learned. The one on the right, is her shoe that she had to draw and then overlap the same design around the whole page.



Kaitlin painted this as her last project. She was so pleased with how it turned out. We are very proud of all she has learned. She hopes to continue when school starts later this month.

That's fabulous, Kaitlin! Well done! :)
Elianna likes to draw too, but she's not on this level yet. I'm hoping to begin lessons again this fall.
