it's hard to believe just a year ago, you would not even color.
turns out, you just don't prefer crayons.
you don't like to "color". you like to draw. with marker, pencil, and sidewalk chalk.
a few weeks ago you wanted to chalk the driveway. it was raining so i let you chalk in the garage. guess what you are drawing? trains. you draw mostly trains, very long trains - filling up the whole length of our driveway. you've started drawing trucks, cars, delivery trucks and occasionally you will draw something different like a dinosaur or the latest Bible story you learned at sunday school.
i love your art and seeing you chalk on the ground reminds me so much of one of my favorite artists, Jackson Pollack as he "paints".
"there is no accident ... there is no beginning and no end."
"because a painting has a life of it's own - i kind of let it live."
thank you for helping me remember that i love art.
