Chestene's Monalisa

'Chestene's Monalisa'

Meet my Little Picasso's first painting on canvas! I know, it's not very much like the famous Mona Lisa, but I'm really happy she came up with this masterpiece. She painted this lady (sorry I forgot the title she gave this!) sometime in January of this year. And knowing me, who is perennially busy with all sort of things (important or otherwise), I forgot to post it earlier as usual.

Since I don't want to influence her painting style, I just let her choose the subject, colors and off she painted away. This is her concept of a beautiful lady at her age-- still untainted and unprejudiced.

It's amazing how children remind us some of the the best lessons in life we tend to forget-- be what you are and think outside the box and society standards.

Once again, I'm thankful I have my Little Lady to teach me that.

Art by my Little Picasso

These artworks were taken from one of my little princess' collection of sketch pads. I scanned some of her drawings and placed them on yellow background to make them more colorful. I've always encouraged her to create art in her spare time.

Actually, create art and write.

These are two things that I have great passion for, that I want to pass on to her, somehow. Good thing that she has an inherent interest in them, that she didn't need a lot of pushing.

Constantly, I would be reminded to buy a new sketch pad, everytime the last 50-page pad gets consumed in a day or two.
