An Art Lesson with Ms. Lillie

My in-laws have the very good fortune to be friends with a husband and wife team of amazing artists. Over the Thanksgiving holiday week, Ms. Lillie invited Morgan and Julia up to her house for an art lesson. Morgan was so excited! They painted a few pictures for the holidays with Ms. Lillie's guidance. The got messy and loved every minute of it!

The most exciting part of this art trip was the girls got to paint on a piece of slate. Lillie loves to paint on slate, and we have a couple that she has done in our home (including an amazing giraffe duo that she did for Morgan's birth). Lillie drew with chalk on the slates and the kids were able to paint their own snowmen.

I am so proud of Morgan and her finished product! She did an amazing job and it is something I will treasure the rest of my life. Not bad for a 4 year old, right?!
