Waking up my little sweetheart in the morning “Good Morning betu”.Time to wake up..
Another one….”Khwaish its afternoon we will go to play in the evening with friends”.
These are some of my lines to my daughter khwaish to tell her about the time of the day.
Nature has its own way to tell the time in the day…
So finally I thought let’s explore one day on the canvas in nature’s way with khwaish ,the different phase of one day Morning,afternoon,evening and night.
Well I showed her some pic in my nature's library folder and some clips from net to have little more idea on what we are doing. It becomes little easy to do task when u have some homework done.
Evening view from my terrace. |
This activity was more of fun and innovative since Khwaish got to make some new colours.We were out of orange colour stock so we made same by mixing red and yellow plus we want little lighter shade of blue colour…so made it by mixing the same.
Divided one piece of chart into four phase –coloured the sky at morning, afternoon, evening and night in different shades. Made small mountains and little tree next to same….added sun in different position which was very important…like morning it is rising. Night time can see stars and little trace of moon….May b its little cloudy night. Added little birds to make view more relatable.
So very proudly we present our little folding hanging cards….with dawn to dusk.
What a beautiful activity, Ashu. Taking inspiration for art from none other than nature means developing a bond with your environment and bringing peace and serenity to your heart.
