The Eagle has Landed

Wee Picasso created this Eagle for our local River Festival. Her class helped tag baby Eagles this spring. We are very fortunate to have many Eagles around our home. Age 8

How to Weave

First - Get a Loom 

 Next - put the colour yarn you want on the loom 

 Then - put the yarn in the shuttle for the loom - as many (colours) as you want 

Last - put the shuttle in and out and in and out of the yarn

The Universe

Unbeknownst to me - Wee Picasso has an understanding of our Galaxy and the Universe. 

I must say the Universe looks really funky!

I did not know stuff at age seven.

Stop, Block & Tell #stopcyberbullying

Our friend Parry Aftab was looking for some artwork. Stop, Block and Tell is the motto she is teaching Canadian students in regards to online safety. Wee Picasso and I designed this concept (she has attended a summit on this topic and a meeting with our local gov't officials.) then she executed it in paint. She choose the mean words to write under the "block" section.

#Stopcyberbullying + Art for Premier

Wee Picasso made this artwork at my office today while preparing for a meeting with the Premier of the province. She is on a task force for youth to Stop Cyber Bullying lead by Parry Aftab. I have prints from Yellowknife artists Dave Brosha and Robbie Craig of the Northern Lights. This is her picture of the Northern lights with a reminder to Stop Cyber Bullying, she gave it to the Premier of our province today.

A gift of art

Someone is getting this really nice drawing as a gift tomorrow! 

Paintings of 2013 - Piping Plover

Another favourite of 2013 - I love this as much as my beloved Peacock painting. An endangered Piping Plover painted for Gran.

Egyptian Princess

I discovered this lovely Egyptian while cleaning Wee Picasso's room today

Fashions

Wee Picasso was VERY quiet this morning. Turns out she was into her new sewing supplies. Seems she needs to expand her drawing studio into sewing.

Santa Baby

Gran has taught Wee Picasso how to create with Fabric. This was a school project that took on a new life. She designed the concept, made a pattern, then made the rest from Gran's scraps. I (Mom) helped by supervising, stiching him closed once stuffed, a few knots, the "sharp scissor" cutting, the hot glue for eyes and jet packs and sewing the silver laces on his roller skates.

R2-D2

Sometimes I just come across drawings in Wee Picasso's room. R2-D2 was on her desk tonight.

 Age 7

Friendship bracelets

Wee Picasso is learning all sorts information about patterns in math. She is making bracelets all the time and asked me for a new kind of bracelet. I taught her how to knot a friendship bracelet and she figured it out right away. 

Wee are family

A new family drawing - Wee Picasso insisted on giving me long hair. She does not approve of my short curls.

Budding photographer

Wee Picasso loves to try her hand with my camera. She took this photo of me this weekend. 

eyes are the window to the soul

Wee Picasso practicing drawing eyes.

Age 7

More Power Puff girls

Wee Picasso was very pleased to have met Troy Little last weekend - he draws the Power Puff girls comic. Here is her latest PP girls.

Autumn Leaves

Ready for Comic Con

Drawing Powder Puff Girls & My Little Pony to take to Comic Con today.

Little Fairy anklets

Wee Picasso makes one of these each day when playing outside. They are sturdy and stay on most of the day.

Symmetry

Wee Picasso at an after school fun event - where Mommy wasn't the teacher! This was a project about symmetry. I was very impressed with her drawing. I did not get a picture of it fully painted. I will once the whole set is mounted.

She was the last one finished - as usual.
