Matisse!
This one is mine and is a ring master in the circus. That's the tightrope at the top, and the posts that support it on the sides.
Joshua made this one. He said it is a superhero with a really tall hat, and his superpuppy, protecting the earth from a giant meteor.
He also made this one - on the right are the Smoky Mountains, the brown part is England, the yellow sticky-down part is Italy and the yellow part on the left is Hawaii. That's Mama, with a blue hat, between England and the Smoky Mountains. That's the sky at the top...
And I drew this one. It's Mama. That's the atmosphere swirling around her feet. She's like that. She's 38, but don't tell anyone I told you.

Our First Art Class
We had our first art class today. Ms. Sandy told us all about Wassily Kandinsky and his artwork. He painted alot of abstracts based on music, so we did some paintings while we listened to music. We got to use pastels, pencils and markers. It was a lot of fun, and I was really glad that Joshua didn't freak out. He was pretty nervous, but then he started painting, and he wasn't nervous anymore. We're looking forward to next week and what we'll learn then!
These are by Joshua.

Art Adventures
We saw some really big paintings by this guy, Hunt Slonem. I mean, they were humungous. They had a lot of macaws on them, and I like macaws, so I drew one.
When we got home, he drew this picture of a pig queen. He makes his "p" backwards because he's just a little kid. And it only says "Mom" on it because it is for Mom...she's not a pig queen. :-D
We also signed up for art classes at a local art center that will start in March. We're pretty excited about it. Mom says we may learn how to paint so we can be artists when we grow up. Or firemen...or secret agents...or clowns.
Peace,
Derek
