This idea came from my friend Deena. She was in a house and noticed a wall of family portraits. Each year a framed family portrait, which the kids draw, is added to the wall. Over the years the wall has became a beautiful memory of a family growing up.
Isn't that lovely?
A simple project documenting kids' art and family.
I asked the girls to draw our family portrait and here is Kira's first picture. We are all shown in our favorite colors and this is the first time she has drawn clothes. (I'm the happy one in green).
As well as hanging the picture on the wall, I uploaded it to be displayed in the International Children's Gallery.
