| Fridge Art - Sunny Day Abstract |
The pieces of artwork featured in the blog today show two different approaches to the display of childhood art. One tattered picture is casually framed by fridge magnets and shows a sunrise with happy white birds across the blue horizon. The other piece more formally framed in black is at the abstract end with a blazing purple sun towering above a multi-color rainbow landscape. Still these two versions of the world painted by young persons in my family both represent the wonderful reassurance of youthful joy. This type of work in childhood is treasured by parents all over the country sometimes tucked away in boxes or albums, sometimes framed and sometimes diplayed casually. These mementos are saved with both pride and love. The paintings also are some of the true artifacts of the American home.
