Work of Art

Yesterday, the boys and Daddy came up with the great idea of doing some painting...on themselves.  Daddy assured that it started as a contemplative activity to deepen one's understanding of the temporal experience of life in line with the Buddhist monk practice of creating sand mandalas.  However, by the time Mommy got there, they had gone post-modern and it was all about art for art's sake.  Both boys looked like they might be part of a roving display from the Museum of Modern Art, and Daddy was holding one of the loaded paint brushes.  But as long as everybody stayed in the tub until they were cleaned off, Mommy was happy to let them expand their artistic horizons.
