I’ve neglected art lately. That happens. It sneaks up on me and suddenly I want to do art with the kids. When I saw Meg’s post the other day, I knew this was something easy we could do. I love easy. I’m all about the easy.

Not only was it easy, it was outside. Easy cleanup, double goodness.

Georgia O’Keeffe was the inspiration for this project and I was sad I hadn’t prepared in advance and gotten library books about her. Maybe next time. We walked around the yard zooming in with our eyes on the flowers.

While we were out there a gigantic horsefly zoomed around, scaring the life out of Emeline who hates flying bugs. I swear this one was huge, possibly it was a small bird.

I killed it though. No one was harmed, except the abnormally large horsefly.

I forget how much I enjoy art. We should really do it more often.
