The Budding Artist

Today Luka attended his first painting class with Frani. He loved it. He couldn't get enough of the color blue. Actually in the end there were more colors on the canvas and it turned out quite nice (see photo below).

He was the youngest in the class and I had to stay with him the whole time, but you should haveseen him...he was super focused on the task at hand for the first 30 minutes. That is a lifetime for a two year old. You can see his concentration in some of the photos above. He was so cute. He demanded that he sit next to Frani so that he could show her that he could paint too. Frani is 2.5 years older than Luka, but I don't think he minds or notices the age difference. He likes to follow her around and make her laugh and Frani is so nice to him.

FYI, Frani is my good friend Laura's daughter. Laura is from Argentina and is one of my partner's in crime here in Maputo.

Here is the final outcome of Luka's 1st painting class...He calls it The Kite.
