Painting Day

Today was a rainy Painting Day.  I'll make this quick because I have a lot to do, but I really enjoyed the painting exercise. It was an idea from Marsha Johnson (of waldorfhomeeducators Yahoo group).  She suggested an exercise with red and yellow going around a corner and bumping into eachother.  I added a little by telling a story:  "Yellow was out for a walk today and was strolling along enjoying the day...  Red also was out taking a walk in a different area...  They both were walking around, looking at the trees and flowers, etc.  Then Yellow turned a corner and bumped right into Red!  And what a surprise for them then to see their friend Orange!"  Yoav enjoyed the painting like he always does.  This one really looked amazing when it was wet, but it dulled when it dried and isn't quite the same, though I still like it very much...
