There is an Art Museum here called the Cultural Heritage Center. It is stunning but we have rarely been, only to attend a few events. This weekend they hosted an art class for children.
It was really aimed at a slightly older age group and focused on portrait sketching. The painting on the left was painted by a local self-taught Masai man of a Masai warrior in his village. The teacher talked about how the head was shaped like an egg and then where to place the eyes, nose, mouth, etc. I drew the egg and mid-lines for Kaia but she placed the rest. Do you see the resemblance?
Then we headed over to Braeburn School for their FUN DAY. Good food, lots of games. It was great. Kaia made a matching bracelet and necklace. She also won a gift bag in a 'pull the string' game. Actually the lady gave it to her after she lost 3 times in a row and looked like her heart had been broken. God Bless kind people.

Brutal. On Sunday it was out before we even woke up, and yes we are thrilled to have slept in past 730! But no coffee... no way! It was time to splurge at the local shishi cafe. Totally worth every shilling.
Kids loved it too because we ordered them sausage.
Gotta say that Theo is starting to look like a pretty big boy.
It was so nice seeing their smiling faces instead of the insect.There is a strong family resemblence and as you say,Theo looks as big as Kaia in the picture.
ReplyDeleteHey Kaia you did a good job drawing a picture of the man's head.A personal aside says what a talented artist and such strength depicted in the man's face.
Good to hear you enjoyed the special coffee.It looks delicious.
