The Firebird and a Giraffe

More painting-presents by the kids. These were for my folks. Keira has been inspired by Stravinsky’s ballet The Firebird and it has featured heavily in her artwork of late. If you look carefully, even the Ballerina Polar Bear she painted for Amanda is in a Firebird costume.

Polar Bears

The kids had so much fun making paintings for my folks and sister (more on that in a moment), not to mention the Cows for Nana earlier) that I got them to paint a couple paintings for Amanda to take to work and hang up in her office.

(Amanda already got her Family Portrait from me).

Both the kids decided to paint Polar Bears.

More paintings…? Only 17 shopping/painting days until Xmas – and there were a couple more I wanted to get done… Luckily in a little over a week all the madness around here will be done and I’ll have a little over three full glorious weeks with no scheduled activities. Oh, we’re going to do some sledding… and visiting friends we just don’t get around to seeing regularly enough… but we’re also going to get some stuff done (and for me, that’s going to be painting!)
