Today he was playing 'boat' in a small cardboard, then he tore it up to make a 'giant plane' and whizzed it in the sky. I asked if he would like to paint little windows on the plane, but he didn't. He tore the wings and folded up to make little houses. Then he tells me he wants to paint the house.
(The transformation of his cardboard took place too fast, so quick I didnt had chance to grab my camera, but I witness every single delightful moment before my eyes and this was too precious to miss for any mummy. This was what was left after the boys went to bed.)
This is Theo's version of "Fire". Wonderful use of colour tones as a fire would have. Great observation.
This is the first story he had painted! A milestone indeed. Aged 3yrs, 8mths.
He tells me this, "The black circles are flying fox, the red colour line is a safety belt for firemen to slide all the way down. The red and orange is a fire, the green circle is sparklers, then there are some grass beside it. And an orange one is a helicopter hovering over the fire to put out the fire."
Impressive description of a story.
(Theo does not attend art classes nor is under any instruction to draw. These are all spontaneous drawings purely initiated by him.)
