Modern Art Mondays: Face Paint...but not what you are thinking

For this weeks Modern Art Monday, my resident artist decided to branch out and try some new techniques.

His choice of medium...Chocolate Pudding.
His choice of canvas...His Face.


Enjoy the final masterpiece:




...And of course, the little 'artist in training' watched on with enthusiasm.

Modern Art Mondays

My two little artists were very busy this morning.

The pictures were taken with my cell phone because I was afraid to run and get the camera. (Hey, do you blame me?? Would you leave a 1 year old and a 2 year old alone in a room armed with paint and brushes?!)

Inspiration came to Marcus (2) while he was suppose to be eating breakfast. While eating he jumped out of his chair and said, "Mama, I need my paint."

Who am I to stop an artist or interfere with flash genius like that? So I quickly provided him some paints and he went to work. Soon after Sophia (1) started objecting loudly to the fact that Marcus was out of his chair painting while she was strapped into her high chair. I let her out and it became a joint collaboration.

Here is their final masterpiece. Enjoy!
