Nudge 22, Inspired by Children (more)

Hi all, just checking in with you to share a couple of links regarding the very popular Nudge 22.

Here you can find the notes from a Frida Kahlo based project that I did with the 5-10 year olds in my summer library program "ArtEscape."

Jill Berry has shared some of her kids art on her blog here. I particularly love this page.
Jill's son Sam, is the artist responsible for Fish Boy. Gotta love those teeth and the way the hair echoes the teeth. Sam was most likely not thinking "I can't draw a fish boy." Kids' art sure makes me happy.

Jane LaFazio runs an afterschool program for underprivileged kids call "Mundo Lindo." So, if you are kid-less, no need to steal one (hahahaha Hannah and Gina).

Oh yes, and if you haven't see enough of Teddy (my ginger kitty) here are some more antics. I'm the proud mama, what can I say?

Teddy is great! It never fails, if I sit on the floor with something (whether it be paint or fabric) Big Boy is not content unless he has plopped himself in the middle of the mess. And you are so right about children and art - I get more inspiration from my kids' art then anywhere else:)

Hi Diana!
I couldn't figure out another way to do this; forgot to leave a comment on the paypal payment. I just signed up for Journal Spill; it will be under my dh's acct: Philip. Just wanted to let you know it was me, not hime!

Diana,

Teddy is a beautiful sewing assitant, I have one too and he always gives me joy even if he won't let me do what I want.
