Following on from wanting to see your baking. Can I see your crafts or art? Preferably crap ones so I feel better about mine 😁

I'm usually not bad at painting but did one today and let's just say I think the present climate reflects the painting Blush

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

Ok good craft and art too if you must Wink

Not mine but my DS who is 2yo and being assessed for ASD finally got through his aversion to the texture of paint and made this masterpiece today Grin I’m a proud Mum today (the clean up was horrific but hey-ho!).

It’s less a finger painting and was more an exercise in swirling the paint in circles 😂

I am, even though I had to chase him around the house afterwards whilst he tried to smear paint all over the cat Smile

My 9 year old daughter drew Qbert the other day. To say there were some smiles when she showed the adults

DD (14) who does NOT like Art was asked to do a picture in the style of The Scream about how she feels about being in lockdown.
She took inspiration from Sleeping Beauty and used her school as the castle.
She put a lot of work into it and she’s pleased with the effect.
Proud mum here.

Here’s a poor attempt at a little comic strip I made a while ago - the cat in question is a little diva named Modo and she’ll still bite me the minute I start to drift off to sleep -_-

The title is “Encroaching Dread” Grin

NaviSprite · 29/03/2020 16:16

That’s a fabulous painting @Sgtmajormummy, very emotive and detailed Grin your DD has talent!

incognitomum · 29/03/2020 16:16

@Vgbeat omg Grin

@Sgtmajormummy dd has a talent even if she doesn't like art.

@NaviSprite you're so neat!

Here's my creepy one. I'll have to bin it can't even paint over it as some areas are raised (too much paint)

I'll do a cheerful one tomorrow Smile

Grin Biting cats! Brilliant strip, love the kids art works, they are all truly beautiful and Qbert! Currently painting miniatures myself though having a break atm as not focused enough to paint teen tiny details.

NaviSprite · 29/03/2020 16:22

That’s good @incognitomum do you do mixed media art? Rather than scrapping it maybe add to it with collage (I scrape the raised paint away and then add where I can with newspapers or random oddments) - seems a shame to bin it Smile

NaviSprite · 29/03/2020 16:24

Or is it mixed medium? Brain is not working today! I have a painting I did of David Tennant for my DH (massive Dr Who fan) and that was about 3 years ago, since having my DTwins the muse has done a runner 😂

FuckCovid19 · 29/03/2020 16:24

DD and I painted steppingstones yesterday. Can you guess which is mine 😂

After a shitty few weeks, I found it very therapeutic and will be looking at getting a paint by numbers from somewhere 👍🏻

@FuckCovid19 can we see them?

@NaviSprite I might make a collage good idea.

FuckCovid19 · 29/03/2020 16:33

I did attach pictures, they’re showing in my phone...

NaviSprite · 29/03/2020 16:36

I see them FuckCovid19 very nice and I’m hoping I’m right in saying yours is the first? Grin love the ladybug on your DD’s!

FuckCovid19 · 29/03/2020 16:39

Hahaha @NaviSprite yes DD’s is the Ladybird one 😊 no idea what we’ll do with them as we don’t have any grass in our garden, they might have to go and live in Grandma’s garden when all this is over

sickofcoronavirus · 29/03/2020 16:53

@incognitomum Are you in Liverpool by any chance? Looks a lot like our skyline!

incognitomum · 29/03/2020 17:04

I can see them now @FuckCovid19!

No @sickofcoronavirus am oop north though.

I think that’d be a nice idea @FuckCovid19 - I did loads of those for my Great Gran when I was a kid, she never laid them in her garden (she was very proud of her perfectly manicured grass) she did however line them up on the kitchen windowsill Grin

DysonFury · 29/03/2020 20:02

I made an embarassingly awful tissue paper stained glass window on Friday. DD6 looked at it like Confused and asked what it was meant to be Grin

incognitomum · 29/03/2020 20:10

@DysonFury didn't you take a pic?
