Kid's creations.

I love drawing but i always need an object in front of me to draw the image on paper, whether it is flower, leaf, photograph, picture, situation, landscape, person anything. I can hardly draw something directly from my imagination or i need to try really hard. To draw a train or ship i need picture of it in front of me....i'm dependent, i feel helpless. No doubt i enjoy creating such drawings and it brings delight to my children. I have never been trained for art of drawing...just drawing periods of school time, but i feel to draw more than technical aspects i'm lacking something fundamentally. Is it lack of keen observation? lack of practice to draw different curves? poor imagination? absence of creativity?....don't know but i always feel i can't express myself completely with drawing.

But with kids I have always felt they don't have to think before creating something whether it is drawing, craft or anything.....it's spontaneous action.

Planning was of making Ganesh from paper-mache but due to Kathak program and gymnastics competition couldn't have time and when realized that we are too late Ashna made Ganesh from cardboard within 10 minutes and decorated with color LED from a broken toy!

A quick drawing from Megh..........Turtle mummy brought tiny kids to play on this 'learning while playing' ride...built of stone, wood and cement! 

Another quick craft from Megh!

Megh's ship!... front wooden pieces is 'mast' ; thermocole is 'yard' of his ship by moving it can change direction of ship and wires is air pump removed from aquarium ... he used it for oxygen need while diving!

Love all these creative energy.....
