Skipping Painted Stones
An entertaining art blog based in rural Iowa and written by author and artist Haley McAndrews.
Emma had been asking put together a LEGO set with me for weeks - and we just didn't seem to have a chance to spend a few hours to sit down and work on one. Believe me, I have a few waiting; my newest one is a set that can be made into 3 different things, one of which is a film camera! :D I finally caved about half an hour before bedtime and agreed that we could put together one of the tiny art-themed brick sets I have stashed away in my studio for future building (you know, when I have time... LOL!) This set still took about 40 minutes with all the pauses for photographs. The one we picked this time around is a tiny version of the Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer. Emma got really excited when i showed her the picture, as she had apparently learned about the painting in school (have I mentioned before that I love our school? Because I do.) Please enjoy the following minute-long speed build video of the set - and ignore the tiny hands of my "helpers" who very quickly were more interested in playing with the random pieces instead of building the actual set. I'm not entirely sure what to do with all these teeny sets once they are completed... I might need a new shelf put up in my studio where I can display them all. Hint, hint, Jon. ;) Here are a few other posts I have about artistic plastic brick sets:
