Painting and Poetry

This year Laura gets to do a watercolor painting with her poetry.  It's wonderful!  Creation to Christ has the plans built right into the lessons.  Each week Laura studies a new poem from Robert Frost.  With each new poem she gets to do a watercolor painting.  Laura loves to paint!  This is new to her, doing a step-by-step painting following directions.  I think it will be good for her, teaching her lots of new techniques.  I'm excited to watch her artwork build up in a portfolio.  I'm sure watching her skill level build will be interesting.
