One night last week, the child needed to expend some energy. The wife thought that creating thank you cards from the child would be a good idea as well as a creative outlet for her. It was. The child started with one or two simple colors and by filling each page with a lot of paint. As the project progressed, she started to mix colors together more and to employ more of the space of the page. She also began describing her pictures to us as she created them. Some were of rain. Some were of the wife and I. Others were of objects in her everyday life. One was even self-referential: it was of the child painting!
