Ida has been obsessing on operas lately- namely, the Nutcracker and Mozart’s Magic Flute. She has been answering exclusively to “Clara”. She is also drawing as zealously and quirkily as ever. So, of her own initiative, she has begun to illustrate the operas. Some images are portraits, others full figure. She is very sure of what she is depicting, and I when I showed her them on the computer, she recognized all the subjects. Enjoy!

Looking like some Joan Miro paintings.

The outrageous hair, the enormous faces and tiny eyes, the giant bodies and teeny scribbly legs are all wondrous. Please post more frequently!
