Works of Art

Here are some of Lydia's latest creations. First: a duck habitat. The pink container began life as a gift box, then was repurposed as a puppet theater, and now it seems to have taken on a new existence as a sort of diorama.



Next, here is a collaboration by Lydia and Ethan-- she started it, then asked him for help on parts of the face. This is a copy of a D'Aulaire drawing of Helen of Troy, done in pencil:



Finally, here is an oil painting that Lydia did a while back at one of her arts & crafts workshops. She got it out to display to everyone while her grandparents were visiting in May.



Lydia's latest craze is knitting-- she has decided she wants to learn how to knit (this endeavor may be doomed to failure, since neither of her parents have the slightest idea how to start a knitting project).
