We took down this artwork from our playroom wall before we moved. These pictures evoke some fun memories for me and the boys:
Ellis' life size portrait - we made it "together" (back in the stage when Ellis refused to use markers or crayons, so I'm sure he just watched and told me what to do :).
Henry and I made this back when he wanted to do a "craft of the day" almost every single day. He was pretty excited when I taught him the easy way to draw birds.
Grandpa Dave made these on the day he came to visit our Primary and drew caricatures of kids who were singing well.
I think Henry drew this one when he was best friends with Ava Sorensen. She had a very swirly influence on his style.
School art project - kindergarten
School project - first grade
Keepin' it real by adding the appropriate wildlife to the scene.
Another school project. You can see him starting to deviate from the assignment here.
And even more deviation here. I believe this is a . . .
Moving on to the completely creative type of drawing Henry typically does now. There are a lot of pathways leading to secret places and machines that do complicated stuff.
Self portrait, with a description of what he would keep in his top hat if he were Abraham Lincoln.
