drawing from the senses

 The children and I spent the day drawing and painting outdoors on Wednesday.  We began with our eyes closed listening to the many sounds of the moment.  Keeping eyes closed we smelled the wonderful scents of spring and felt the air and surfaces near our bodies.  We were silent and just allowed life to meet our senses, without the rush to label the sensations...listening intently to the song of the moment.
When our eyes opened and were met with the cacophony of color and shape we began painting and drawing whatever elements inspired us.
A beautiful day!
