I see a bird in a nest in that second picture! wonderful!
It’s so important to keep feeding that creativity…

I love how intensely she seems to be concentrating. So cute!@

I can tell from the photos that Eleanor is already a natural with a paintbrush. So funny, my sister-in-law is an interior designer and artist, and her daughter (3) is naturally drawn to art, too. She was obsessed with coloring and art from day one. It’s so exciting to me to see really young children become fascinated with art, especially if their parents are artists. As an artist and writer myself, and my husband, who is a musician, we’re looking forward to seeing our kids (that we will have someday, but NOT today) discover their interests. I wonder what they will inherit from us? :)

What a lovely photo story these images make – such a wonderful moment beautifully captured :o)

I feel like this is weird, but I am totally jealous of a toddler’s haircut right now!

I love to look of intense concentration in the first pic. She’s VERY serious about her art!
Miss B.
These photographs are so sweet and here artwork is like Franz Kline, did she choose the black on her own? So modern!
Making it Lovely
Isn’t she on to something? I kept asking if she wanted to use another color (like her other paintings have had), but she insisted that this was to be just black.
(p.s. These photos were with the nifty fifty. Thanks again!)

Adorbs!Your kiddos are too cute!
Mandi
Is it wrong that I kind of desperately want your daughter’s haircut? So cute!
Melissa
So cute! Her apron is adorable :)
Nadine
I can totally see you in your daughter (: did she look like you when you were her age? :D
Making it Lovely
I think so. I should find some old pictures of me…

Oh no! August just spilled all the black!
There is some serious cuteness happening with those two.

Uh huh, did you catch that? :) The paint is very thick, so luckily it didn’t really spill. He did get paint all over his hand though, which he then smeared immediately on his face!
Danielle
Very abstract! Love it!

I love the little setup you have… easel, apron, wipeable floor! Eleanor looks so focused on her craft. Is Eleanor a lefty? So’s my Chloe.
Making it Lovely
We think she’s a lefty, but she still switches and used the right hand sometimes too, so we’re not sure yet.
Katrina
so darling :)
Diana
That is so sweet.
A friend of mine just recently forwarded me a website where you can scan in your children’s art onto canvases. I imagine that you could do that at any site like that and your daughter’s little master piece reminded me of it.
Making it Lovely
What a good idea! I saved this one because I liked it. Kind of chic with the all black look, right?
Diana @ Boy + Girl
This is sweet!
brooke
That is very cute.
Alex
Where is August’s shirt from? It is adorable.
Making it Lovely
The Children’s Place.
Sara
I love her hair! They are both so sweet.
Sanja
They are sooo cute and dedicated :) Happy holidays!

Am I a bad mom? Because my first thought when I see these photos is, “How fun! We should do that,” but the second thought is, “But what about the mess? Is she not worried about the rug?”
Also, I commend you that August looks as well-dressed as Eleanor always does. As a mom of two young boys, I’ve found it hard to find nice-looking boys’ clothes. I admit to fawning over little pink coats and purple dresses and sparkly shoes at stores…why does it seem that girls get all the cute stuff?
Making it Lovely
Girls’ clothes are always better than the boys’. It takes a lot more digging to find the stuff that isn’t covered in sports, vehicles, and licensed characters!
Caitlin @ Hardly Housewives
SO CUTE! Look at that focus!
Jules
She looks EXACTLY like you in these pictures! Gus, not so much. Strange, because I always thought he and Eleanor looked the same, but with different noses. Isn’t it weird how a different camera angle can change the way someone looks, or bring out their different features?
Making it Lovely
I always think Gus looks more like me than Eleanor does, but I see me and Brandon in both of them.
Melissa
Love love love it! She looks hard at work and that lil smock is so cute on her.
mari
I had one of those as a kid! And, unfortunately, my parents’ idea of “easy kid cleanup” was not to wrap me in a giant smock, but to let me paint naked. I have the embarrassing photos to prove it…
Making it Lovely
That’s smart! I bet the photos are pretty darn adorable.
Kristina
You are KILLING ME with your children’s cuteness. My sister in law is expecting a girl in a couple of months, and your posts just make the waiting worse. And your son is all eyes. And I love stripes.
Moving on now.
m @ random musings
so focused! adorable
