Good Drawing (by sarah)
Today when I went up to the school the teacher told me that Jean has been doing really good drawings and paintings - so much so that the Head Master has commented on it - she is being very careful and precise with it and generally doing stuff that is beyound her age range 🙂
I had noticed these last two weeks that Jean's drawings and colouring in have really really improoved - instead of random scribbles and things there is structure and now there is secondary, tertiary and even quarternary structures. I even found her drawing a map though she insists its not a map:
'It's not a map! It's what things look like if your up up all the way in the sky.'
Unfortunatly she has also been drawing war machines with whirrling blades on them - not entirely sure where she's got that one from!
I showed her how to draw stick men and she drew one and then added a stomach and a face and hair and things and it was recognisable as a person!
She also drew aload of circles and said they are what's blood :/
I'll try and photo some of these and put them on the blog as I think they are interesting!
But then I am her mother 😉
I was a whole year older than her before a teacher commented on my use of perspective! Plus I'm glad she's drawing and stuff becuase she had started saying she didn't want to becuase they weren't good like mummy's pictures 🙁
