How a Prickly Cactus Gives Me the Sweetest Sentiment
One of my favorite lessons of all time is about to be drawn in Young Rembrandts classrooms all across the country. It’s called – Cacti. You’ve heard me talk about this lesson before. My son Matt’s drawing, (pictured here) done many years ago, is still a personal favorite and hangs in my home and office.
Young Rembrandts students should be completing this piece sometime in the VERY near future so keep an eye out when they come home with their version of this masterpiece. This particular lesson requires a tremendous amount of time, focus and patience, especially when drawing, coloring and adding so many teeny tiny spines all over the cacti. We hope you will take special notice and appreciate your child’s creativity and hard work.
All of the artwork we develop in the Young Rembrandts curriculum department is near and dear to my heart. In my 26 years doing Young Rembrandts, there are so many special memories of children and their art connected to each lesson. And while we have many time-tested favorites, we continue to develop new lessons, as we strive to continually improve the learning process for your child.
I would LOVE to see your child’s Young Rembrandts drawings. You can either mail them to me at [email protected] or post them on my Facebook page!
If your child is not in a Young Rembrandts class yet- we would love to help you find a class near you. Most of all – keep your kids drawing and sharing themselves through art.
