round-like-a-circle painting

painting - round like a circle

Since there was a wild snow storm and we were housebound all day today, we decided to do a little bit of painting. Baba has been asking for a painting for his work office wall for awhile now. So I gave Lilah four pots of paint and she got right to it. This painting is unlike any of the previous ones she's done, this one actually has some logic to it. While she was painting, she was rhyming to herself, "Round and round like a circle". And indeed she did paint a few (fairly recognizable) circles!

Needless to say Baba is very impressed with his piece of art, by our very own, Lilah van Gogh!

She's known some of her shapes for several months now and I take no credit for it. In fact the ever delightful Dora-the-Explorer has taught her all the shapes she currently knows, which are: Circle, Star, Triangle, Square and Diamond. She says rectangle, but I don't think she's quite figured out what shape it is yet.
