Two magic trees

This really was a fun project: two paintings for two wonderful kids. I created these images after interviewing the two of them trying to figure out what they like, what makes them laugh, and what they would like in their painting. 

That was the easy part... 

After that it was clear I had to create a painting with a tiger- a shark- an  elephant- AND termites in it....only in a 5 year old mind that's the easiest thing to do ...it was a hilarious fun experience ;)

The best part...when they saw their paintings and were flat on their bellies trying to figure out the stories behind the paintings.

These pantings were auctioned off at the Spring Benefit 2012, of the Metropolitan Montessori School NY
