Future Van Gogh?

It's really neat to see how Lucia's drawing/coloring skills have evolved. She used to just scribble all across the paper, but recently she started trying to actually color in different parts of the pictures. She's also able to draw circles now. Sometimes they turn into hearts, but hey, that's a legitimate shape, too.

Here's a picture of her yesterday in the library doing a coloring activity for Spanish storytime.



Holding her work up for all to see.



A close up. Check out the use of color - blue ice cream, green shirt and shorts, one brown shoe, one orange shoe...



And finally, this is from about a week ago when she was coloring in the bathtub.  She asked me to draw a tree, so I drew two (mine are the two on the right), then she drew her own (on the left)!
