Frescoes and prints

Today we were studying the Sumerians, they were a very advanced culture possibly the basis of the Atlantis myths. They made beautiful frescoes and had indoor plumbing. Today we made a valient attempt at recreating frescoes, which were beautiful if a little brittle. We also made prints of paintings the girls made. We discussed how the print is a mirror image of the original. Renee thought it was really nifty that her initials appeared backward on her print. I love how much my girls love art!!
