Drawing





Quite different from Kimberlee's work, ha, but Lieveke does some incredibly colorful drawing at the moment. Adults often need explanations, or figurative suggestions. Not so for young kids, the act is the art, so when the other day a visitor asked 'but what IS it', Lieveke looked at this person and with a genuine warm wish to enlighten she said revealingly 'ah, it IS a drawing '. Also a pic of a kitchen corner, I tend to herd cards, images, bits and pieces, and not really knowing what else to do with them, I stick them on the wall. It all becomes one colorful collage (or chaos - depending on my mood eh). And a photo of my new dress, it fits the 'picture' here somehow.
-enjoy the new week ** Lies

I was just reading something about artwork and children, never ask a child "what is it?" but instead try "tell me about what you are making"

thanks lieve, we all needed to be reminded from time to time :)

LOVELY WORK wee one!

Girls, alas no I didn't make it... It is however a 100% Kiwi product (designed and made in NZ!) by Kingham Jones - does that ring a bell C and M, I'd never heard of them but they are part of the NZ high fashion scene I'm told... I just like the dress, it's happy, fits a huge belly AND comes with a lovely belt for when the body returns after birthing (I hope eh) ALSO it was on SAAAAALE!!!!
