Zane's Artwork

I have been such a slacker about posting, and I have so much to post, but since I haven't loaded my new pics from my camera yet, I thought it might be fun to post a little bit of Zane's artwork. He loves to draw and paint, and I think he is pretty darn good at it.


Bat

Octopus
Dolphin

Santa Maria

Horse

T-Rex
The horse and the T-Rex were painted on the same day, and I like to think of them as a set.
The Praying Mantis is my very favorite.
I know I am his mother, but I think it is brilliant.
There are quite a few other pieces that I have put away and have not scanned yet, but I will scan a few other good ones later. Nyah loves to paint and color with Zane, but so far it is pretty much circles and lines. I will have to post a few of hers too so she can see her creations on the computer as well. I think her natural gift of art is dance. She has natural rythem, and can twirl and move with ease. We put on music just about every day and let the kids get their groove on. Jeff says poor Zane has inherited his dad's rythem. I wouldn't know since I have NEVER seen Jeff dance in the 10 years I have known him (other than basic slow dancing, of course). Anyway, he has a pretty cool way of busting a move too, and you can tell that he really gets into it. It's pretty funny to watch.
I love my kids, they bring Jeff and I so many smiles every day.

I love the artwork! In fact, I saved all of Gabe's artwork from when he was at Challenger. I even framed some of it!

Great artwork! I also have many pieces of artwork around my house from my also brilliant little artists.
Hey! Looks like you visited Cutest Blog on the Block. Now you are caught up . . . for a while at least.

Wow - I can't believe how well he can paint. I'm just teaching Aveia how to color within a certain area. I can't wait until her scribbles turn into characters like Zane's.
