Little Things Thursday - Pumpkin Art

Hello & Welcome. - I thought I would join Tamar (Random-osity) for:

LITTLE THINGS THURSDAY 

Coleen (my granddaughter) is taking Advanced Art in school this year so as one of her projects she decided to do some sidewalk chalk art.

I didn't get shots of her rough outline before she started but you can see the white chalk marks of the pumpkin outline in this photo.

She continued to color and blend with her fingers and water.

Below is a close-up of how she was blending the chalks.
 

The finished pumpkin with the wet outline of the shadow.  

 The completed Pumpkin after the shadow had dried.

A close-up of the stem showing the detail of her work.

 

Sadly she wasn't able to turn this in due to the fact that she was supposed to follow a prompt of (Architecture) but she could turn it in later for credit.

 

We had rain later in the week...

 

The pumpkin begins to run and fade.

 

As of yesterday all that remains is a faint outline of the pumpkin, the shadow and her hand prints from when she laid them on the sidewalk after blending.

I am thankful for having a wonderful granddaughter, I'm thankful that God gave her such a talent and she loves art.

 

I'm thankful for the rain (we needed it) even though I was sad to see her art work go.

 

I'm thankful for cameras that we can capture these special memories.

 

 

Little Things to be Thankful For

Welcome!  Hope everyone has been having a nice week. - It's been busy here but pleasant.

So today I'm joining Tamar (Random-osity), Michelle (It's a Small Town Life) and Gosia (Looking for Identity) for:

FENCES AROUND THE WORLD

LITTLE THINGS THURSDAY

THANKFUL THURSDAY


First up my Fence shots... (Click to enlarge photos)

 What's that behind the bars of this fence?  Why it's a......Dinosaur!


Here is a better view.  You'll notice he's decked out with Christmas lights.  These shots were taken in April of 2015 and they apparently hadn't taken off the lights yet. 

Just in case you are wondering there is a "fence" in the background of this shot.

Next up for Little Things Thursday & Thankful Thursday....

It's time for.....Strawberries!!!

Yes that's me (goofy face & all) enjoying the first strawberries from Klicker's this year. 

Don't they look lucious?

What's a girl to to but make Strawberry Shortcake.

I'm thankful we have local, fresh berries to enjoy every summer because they sure beat the ones you buy in the store!

Have a great day.
