ka-boom!

This is an oil pastel image created by Kyle, Trenton and me one evening when he was around four. We started with a campsite and campfire and added mountains and as soon as we discovered we could smear the pastels easily with paper towels and fingers we had great fun adding lots of layers of color and then the explosions of the volcanoes in the background -- ka-boom! I have always loved this picture because of the colors but mostly because of the memory of making it. It is framed and hangs next to our dining room table.
