Branching out into a new medium: Color Wonder markers. I picked these up for my friends' daughter Sadie after the leaf incident. They live in the shell of the Buckle Turtle, who comes with us on all of our train journeys from daycare. (A brief word of praise: Buckle Turtle is awesome. In addition to the six buckles, it has a zipper pocket, some numbers and shapes for camouflage, and a head that can be crumpled back into the shell, which meant that over time Sadie came to learn the phrase "Squish its head". It came from Buckle Toys.)
As noted in the earlier post, these markers don't really mix -- I guess that would be a lot to ask, given that much of the point is that they set immediately on contact with the magic paper -- but you can do terrible glazes with them.
I also got to watch another artist at work: on the train, Sadie went to town after convincing me that enough people had disembarked to allow for getting the markers out (”not busy train now”). She described this piece to me at some length, but unfortunately my grown-up ears comprehended little and the only detail I can pass on to you is that the brown mark is a park.
