Dinosaurs, Fun With Art
Dinosaurs, one of Kate's favorite subjects. As I'm typing this she's sitting next to me, playing a dinosaur game on the computer while wearing a dinosaur t-shirt from the Field Museum.

Her birthday dinosaur balloon lasted for a few weeks.
She has a LOT of dinosaurs and animals (as shown in the second photo of this post. They need a landscape. We did one awhile ago, but it got ripped. Regular art paper didn't really stand up to frequent trampling by dinosaurs and more current animals. She made a new one with her brother Danny, that got peed on by the dog (oops).
We used heavy duty water color board this time, which I later covered with duralar so it'll last longer.

The whole landscape.

Trying things out with Alex the Lion.

The different dinosaurs fit just right. Some times she will pretend this is The Great Valley (from Land Before Time).
It's a fun art project that we did together. She's painted some landscapes since then. I love how she still uses the entire piece of paper, even when it's really big.
