Our family went to the art museum yesterday with a local homeschooling group (organized by Laura). We had a really nice time. The girls particularly enjoyed seeing paintings by Picasso and Georgia O'Keeffe, as we have been reading about them and mimicking their artwork.
As we were browsing the contemporary art gallery where the Picasso and O'Keeffe paintings are located, we admired many contemporary paintings (much like the one above). Claire turned euphorically to her sister and said "Lily! That looks just like your paintings at home! We could do this Mom!"
I wish I understood contemporary art. It is beautiful to look at, but to me, Claire and Lily do paint just like this. The Olivia-like mentality is perfectly understandable.
