If you are a parent who encourages creativity or simply has children who
use art for expression then you have a lot of boxes of expressions lying
around. And like most parents each one is too precious to throw away and it’s
all put in a box that you will “sort through later.” Well later is now. My
original thought was to take all similar sized art into Staples and have it
bound. Maybe even laminate my favorite for the cover. This will be a daunting
but precious task. I have kept my most prized art treasures with this goal in
mine.
However in my motivated state, as I was sorting through my kids rooms, I
grabbed my camera. Every time I was compelled to thrash simple artwork and my
heart skipped a beat I simply took a picture of it. Building a digital album of
my kid’s artwork with the hope of turning it into a graphic scrapbook someday
is another new obsession I will have to put on the back burner. But now I have it
forever and in a much more “downsized” format. It's also great for 3D artwork and materials that will not last the test of time.
Maybe soon they will have their own art blog!
Enjoy.
