A Self Portrait...

We all know how much I love children's art.

I think one of my favorite types of children's art are self portraits. Self portraits are not easy- trust me, I took several years of figure drawing in college- but I just love the way kids go about it in such a literal way...



At the top is says: I am strong

At the bottom is says: loud, cute, silly, nice

Isn't it neat to know how your kids seem themselves!? Remi was super proud of his nose- he told me he drew a 'cool nose'!

This little work of art is getting framed and I have just the perfect home for it.... can't wait to put Roen's next to Remi's when he does this next year!

Where's the "love" button? There is no greater love for a child's art work than that of a mother....especially an art loving momma!! I really liked his choice of words to describe himself. Please post a picture of this when it is framed. And tell him his "cool" nose is awesome 😘

Oh I love this! Barrett has just started drawing "creatures" this week and it's the cutest thing. I love Remi's description of himself :)
