So to be involved w/C in some way this morning I let him paint with watercolors (the water paint stuff). This was his first time, so I made him do it at his outside table. He loved it. I went inside to throw away some trash and when I returned he had poured (or knocked over) the cup of water (for cleaning the brush) into his pallete. This basically caused them to overflow into one another. Then when he went to paint it was all too wet, and so he ripped his pages. I had to keep a closer eye on him, but here are the results.
This is hard for me to look at.
His first attempt. See, you can actually see the drawings. Then the huge tear from too much water.
Paint getting thicker and still a tear.
Third attempt. The colors were all bleeding together, but no tears. I seriously couldn't tell up from down w/o the words at the top.
So, Picasso he is not.
