You Can't Rush Art

I must remember to teach Joseph how to transfer a picture onto canvas board.  Maybe a new slide book.  During this painting,  I turned a photo from online art into a paint by number. I visited KidsPeace and had him paint a color at a time, slowly creating from light to dark.  He and I bantered as he painted.  At one point I  offered  him a "Script" of "You Can't Rush Art".  It stuck.  Although I do not think he uses this much with people other than me, he and I share our little one liner as our private communication.

Happy Mothers Day =}

Joseph draws a picture of KidsPeace

Well, I always thought Joseph was rather otherworldly. Now I know why. Hes an alien!
I just love how this kid thinks. Thank God for giving me Joseph!

Its time to go to Mom's House - Joe's Artwork

Yesterday, Joseph was eating lunch at CAP (his group home) waiting for me to pick him up. This is what he drew on a napkin. The staff gave it to me as a keepsake. I think its just great.
