A toddler’s “second series”
Hope everyone had a relaxing weekend! Per usual, our weekend was filled to the brim with things to do and things that didn’t get done. Ah well. But I made sure to take a morning and work on more paintings with my daughter that she could give to her grandma and auntie for their birthdays. And while we were at it, we painted a few more for uncle and great grandpa.
[ the artiste, hard at work ]
[ “the park” in progress ]
It took a lot of persuasion to get her to explore colors other than hot pink and bright orange! But I figured grandma probably wanted something that coordinated a little better with her décor. Creative freedom with a little guidance, right??
[ “grandma’s house” ]
[ “playmates” for auntie — she went crazy with her fave colors on this one ]
[ “I love elephants” ]
[ “the park” — loving the new brushstroke! ]
So I’m still saying…this is super easy and so much fun! Go out and get your own canvases and brushes and paints, and get painting yourself!
Love it!!!
They look great. I have painted a few for my home and love them…I think the whole process is really fun !!

I love your paintings!
Hey girl – hope you had a great weekend – those look great! Will really be special for her family to look at and think of her at this age.
:) E
adore these! and love the colors too… what a great gift!
So cute. I should buy one before she starts selling them for thousands. : )
I think she needs her own Etsy shop ;) Great gift idea!
These are adorable! It reminds me of spending time with my mom in her studio when I was little. Nowadays I love painting to relax and clear my head.
Aww, what a wonderful memory!
What brand of paint does Leighton recommend and when will her first painting workshop be? Or I can just save up and buy one of her originals ;)
I prefer to use Liquitex, but I buy a cheaper brand like Academy Acrylics on occasion!
She really is a doll! And she has a mean brushstroke ;) !!
Oh, what a cutie! “The Park” is my favorite. Those colors work beautifully together!
These paintings are so beautiful! Your adorable daughter needs to start her own Etsy shop :)
how adorable!
Awww I love the pic of her. I hope to be as blessed one day & see a little one painting with me….
Wow, these are beautiful! I wonder if I could do it…..
