To say that Min is the most artistic and creative of my girls is an understatement. There's nothing like some art and craft to calm her down, regardless of how wired up she may be. Most mornings, after she wakes, you'll find her at her table, cutting, pasting, drawing, just creating works of art. She likes recycling things, so pieces of cardboard that were the backing for a sheet of stickers, or perhaps a piece of plastic that covered a present, these will all be hoarded by her and used in her art. Her latest collection is receipts. She picks up receipts from the floor of malls, or asks me for receipts of items I've bought, and she keeps them and sticks them on her work. Over the last few days, Min, together with her sisters, created this piece of work. While her sisters assisted her here and there, most of the work and the ideas were Min's. It started with one sheet of the black cardboard, and as it expanded, a second sheet of the cardboard was added on. Take a look at this video to see how she uses different materials. I would really like to get an art teacher for Min because this is really her passion. Anyone with recommendations?
