Tawny horse in the pasture

Mary painted this horse with watercolor. She was inspired by a photograph online. She enjoyed making the horse a tawny color.

J'aime mon chien

Aidan's fine arts response in regards to the verb Aimer and ne pas. He researched Huskies and was instructed to pick out his favorite picture online. He picked a photograph and then sketched and used guache to color. He has added a humorous twist into his art. If you read the dog's collar it makes use of ne pas and gives the dogs opinion of cats. Je' n'aime pas les chats.
