Painting and Performing Arts

This afternoon the kids wanted to try out some new paints. They were powder paints that needed mixing with water, and instead of making pictures they got into mixing and creating colours.

After dinner I noticed Nathan dancing around and watching his shadow against the curtain.


A month back we'd watched this amazing performance on youtube by Pilobolus (well worth a look if you haven't already seen them). So we turned out the lights (and prepared to get a torch out) when we realised the kitchen light coming through the internal window made the perfect stage and background. The kids had fun creating silhouettes and then I wanted to try out the "dog" lol.
