monster art

Alex made these the summer of 2009 (she had just turned 5). They were inspired from the "little miss" and "mr men" books.




sticky note family

Alex drew these for me today with one of the packs of sticky notes she asked santa for for Christmas. The style reminds me of Quentin Blake, who does the art in Roald Dahl books. I love the "L" noses she does now.

Boogers, yep. She made sure to tell me.


She started drawing snow white style sleeves on girls a couple weeks ago.


Cotton balls

Once Alex realized we had an entire bag of cotton balls in the bathroom, the projects began. Here is one of them, Santa. She pulled each cotton ball apart a little, then drew with pen on each one because she thought Santa's beard shouldn't be pure white, but a little grey-ish. Too bad she is in a no-color phase right now, this would look good with red!
I decided I need to buy her some more paint though (we've run out), she told me today that when she grows up she wants to be a painter. I asked her what she'd like to paint, and she said bowls of fruit. Funny. And cute.

Max

This was on the back of her math homework this week. She must sit by Max.
