What a huge world it must seem to the 'Little Apprentice'.
A place to discover everything and with each opportunity a chance to learn and nurture a potential life long passion.
A visit to the edge of time - The Grand Canyon could be such a memory to cherish forever. As artistic grandparents, and parents, a visits to places such as this provides opportunity to teach our little ones about light, shadow, distance, shape and form. Every view could be a potential painting lesson. We must teach little ones how to daydream, for this is the key to their present and future creativity. |

| A farm visit can provide us with a world of questions, and multitudes of conversation between 'Little Apprentices and ourselves. How the light plays off the feathers of the geese, the texture of the baby duck's soft downy feathers, the soft buttery yellow hues that make them so sweet and lovable. We will be bombarded with,"How's, why's and how come's?" Each of these questions helps us teach little ones how to develop their own imaginations. Even the patterns on the mottled hen's feathers, all of these minute details can teach our 'wee' ones how to 'see' things in a new and interesting light. |

The pumpkin patch...
A Fall trip to the local pumpkin patch can provide fun and interesting materials for both of you to photograph together. Provide your 'Little Apprentice' with a disposable camera of their own, and let them take photographs that can be painted at a later date with your input and guidance. |
