| Finger Painting by Granddaughter |
I went back and forth, back and forth. Now, before I change my mind again, I'm choosing the soap dispenser.
Although I love the color of indigo, it's definitely been an even harder color to discover. What first seems to be that color turns out to have either too much on the blue side or too much on the purple side. One thing Project 64 has done for me is to open my eyes to the innumerable colors we have in our wonderful world.
The argument I had with myself: So, which to choose? Right now I'm leaning toward the finger painting done by my granddaughter when she was in kindergarten or 1st grade. I neglected to date it. Since I am a close friend of the other two primary teachers, I'm dead sure it was done in kindergarten.

You did so well to find it! I have had no such luck as yet, will have to keep on looking, like your thought process with the finger painting!!!!
Good job finding the color. :)
Lovely indigo finds, thanks for linking up with p64
I love the finger painting shot!
love both of them, but for some reason it overlaps them when I look at your blog. Great finds though!
Yay! I can see your blog now! I took shots of a lot of different things for indigo too. It was hard to decide what to go with. I lvoe the soap dispenser though.
I am astounded. I'm not an art expert nor even an artist but I find it hard to believe that this finger painting was produced by someone in Kindergarten or 1st Grade. Seriously, it seems a very remarkable piece to me. The combination of colours, the textures and the brighter splash as a focal point all intrigue me.
Nice projects, the colors well-chosen. I see you have interesting posts here. I'll keep coming back to look around.
Thanks for visiting my site, your comments and for following me. I really appreciate them.
There is just something about that fingerpainting! It brings forth all sorts of imaginings! Love it!
These are great! It's great having you at Project64.
Your granddaugher clearly has strong artistic talent...I'd be hard pressed to produce anything that beautiful, never mind at kindergarten age ;D
You asked about where my photos were taken. They were taken at a historical village/museum called 'Stundars', located in a little place named Solf in western Finland...I didn't want to post the name on my page since I'd show up in a Google search, and people close to me might 'find' me ;D
So glad you blog your thought process! This is great! Let your imagination go and keep going!!
I think the soap dispenser is perfect!
LOVE the finger painting - a lovely abstract of color.
I have a soft spot for finger painting, so I think your selection is wonderful choice for Indigo. Thanks for stopping by my place and leaving a nice comment.

Your granddaughter Finger painting art piece is amazing. I agree with you colours are truly opening our hearts into a totally different world.

Good choice with your granddaughter's art, but you should have told us it was an expensive piece by a famous artist and we would have believed you!
I showed my granddaughter the comments about her finger painting. She let me know that she painted it in our home on the back porch when we lived in the country and had a back porch! That thrills me even more. It's been displayed in my home ever since she did it.
