I still remember the first time I watched penguins closely during drawing class at school in the Artis Zoo when I was a teenager. They are so much fun! I loved the movie 'March of the Penguins'. And now, they're were back again, thanks to the BBC series.
What I didn't know until last week is that my three year old daugther AnnA shares my love for penguins!
When I collected her at my parent's place I saw some drawings she'd made. One of them were penguins. She had seen some of the penguins serie at my parents too!
Last week I asked her if she could draw another penguin, and she started out herself but gave up (duh, she'd turned just three!) Then I made a quick example of a very simple penguin and asked her to draw a penguin bit by bit. First the head and a body, then the eyes and the beak, the wings and two foot.
Et voila! There was an amazing penguin drawn by Anna. I was flabbergasted and proud!!
And saw immediately that they were stamp-worthy :>)
So...our second co-production is a fact: image by three year old artist AnnA and stamp made by her mum. I wonder what is next...
