Luke and Momma at Work

Luke painted a page with watercolor using several colors and sizes of brushes. When it was dry, he cut it in small pieces, selected background paper and made circles of glue lines on the background. Then he placed all the cut paper pieces on the glue lines. The first one was so fun he did another one. He let Momma put a couple pieces in place.

The next painting should be turned sideways, but Mommy forgot. It is a huge truck, painted and then drawn with markers. Luke held two or three markers at the same time so he could make parallel lines on the truck. The driver is wearing a hat, and the motor is under his seat.
This painting is a rainbow with all the colors the paint set contained. Luke said, "There's a rainbow and the grey part is a mystery. First use yellow, then pink, then green, blue, purple, then red."

The next painting is a ship with a lot of parts in the motor and a big propeller. The cardboard he painted on had texture, so the paint pooled in the texture -- pretty neat!
This is the two sheets of paper with all the cut pieces glued on backgrounds. Luke said they had to be hung up by each other.
