Cheap and Meaningful Art

I have finally started working a schedule that allows me to have a lot of time off at home! This is what I have worked so hard for. now I get to spend also much time with Jake. we decided that he needed to paint a huge picture for his room. Why should i have to spend hundreds of dollars on art work for a kids room?!



So went out and bought a big piece of foam board and Jake went to town. I was impressed at his concentration. it was like he had a vision and he was working to execute it!














We set up shop on our front porch. He even drew a little crowd of people as he worked. We have a bunch of guys that live in the apartments above us and they trickled down to watch him paint. One guy said "he's having so much fun, I wish my mom did that!". I got to be cool mom for that day.








This is the finished result. Now all we need is a frame and to put it on the wall. Jake is super proud of his work!
