I had such a wonderful evening with Brooke. She is such a two year old now. Having a daughter is fantastic! For us...soccer, singing {still jingle bells}, pizza {daddy @ a bizzy din-din}, and we used WAY TOO MUCH PAINT for an art project, then a super long bath to wash it all away. A WHOLE BOTTLE OF SOAP!
Then she is off to bed and I was off to research. Nothing gets me going more than inspiration and the excitement that is building around this. Found some great dripping trays that are perfect, given our mascot and all {birdies}
Here it goes. I am finally going to follow the dream. I am opening an art studio for small children in my home in Greenwich, CT. I have always felt that you should let the child feel their own way through the materials with out giving too much instruction or direction. Let them enjoy the experience rather than focus on the end product. Make it theirs!
So here is a small snapshot of the studio before we do some remodeling to prepare
and here is partly the inspiration for the name of the studio "Little Birdies"...
Everytime I would paint or draw this summer in the studio with Brooke I would think of and draw/paint little birdies or get sewn birdies, or cut out birdies...you get the picture.
Stay tuned...I will be posting dates for trial classes soon for late January on Fridays and Saturdays
TO DO: Web site Remodel studio for little people Supplies/class plans Dates Sign up! and begin
email me if you want to be considered for the trial classes.
