Seurat and his dots

This picture is one of my favorites, I just love it. I remember it from art class as a child. It is by French pointillism artist Georges Seurat. Today, Natalie is working on an art lesson in pointillism. It is so much fun! She instantly got paint up and down both arms. I offered to get her a wet rag as she works, but she said, "No mom, that's ok this is what happens to REAL artists. They just wash it off when they are done. I want to leave it." My heart smiled and my face followed. It's a good day.
