We are heading to a 10th Birthday party momentarily and I wanted to pop on to show you August’s quick creation. Normally, he would make a card, but having just moved last week, the blank cards are currently unaccounted for in one of the basement boxes. So, a blank envelope and some colored pencils were all we had at the moment. August asked me what the birthday boy’s favorite color is and I guessed green. The birthday boy wears glasses so it truly is a personalized “card.” I think it’s adorable!
Have you seen the animated movie Sing? In the movie, there is a quirky, old lady chameleon who has a glass eye. August decided to re-invent this character in human form. Here is what he came up with: And a closer-up shot: When I asked him about his drawing, he mentioned the texture of the skin which he modeled after the palm of his hand. He also said he worked hard on the divot under the nose (he called it by it's actual name but of course I can't remember what that is.) For reference, the drawing is about 4 inches tall. I'll be sure to post an update when he makes progress with this drawing. I have a feeling he is going to complete this one!
Well, hello there! It certainly has been awhile! I did not intend to take such a hiatus, yet here we are. August has made so much progress in the past year. Here is a sample of work created during his 5th grade year. Enjoy!
