Sienna's Work Archives - Ashley Hackshaw / Lil Blue Boo

Painting in Progress

August 16, 2010 by Ashley Hackshaw

The artist is hard at work this morning…..various stages of her painting. She’s mixed paints with aqua crayons for the effect:

Update: 4 hours later….she’s still at it. Channeling Pollock again and painting on the floor. I’ve entrusted her with a gallon of gesso in the true spirit of artistic freedom.

The beginnings of a masterpiece…..

I’m letting Boo paint over one of my old paintings. The canvas is a foot taller than she is! The plan is to work on it in stages and in multiple mediums, so stay tuned for the finished piece in a few weeks. This is serious art.

I love these pics from 2009: My Little Pollock

Another Serious Critique of Sienna’s Work….

June 24, 2009 by Ashley Hackshaw

If you haven’t visited the blog What My Kids’ Art Says (and submitted your kid’s artwork too) you are missing out! I submitted another piece of artwork by my 2-year-old daughter Sienna to the site and Dan Consiglio’s interpretation is hilarious yet again. I roll on the floor laughing at the labels he gives his posts: Trickle Down BS, Silence of the Lambs, People Shaped Like Yellow Green Beans, Crap……

Here is the artwork. It was Sienna’s card to her daddy on Father’s Day. Prepare to be transfixed by the combination of beauty and morbid “Silence of the Lambs” references.

Excerpt from the review: “Apparently, her mood has shifted to match the arrival of the blistering summer heat. S’s latest piece — while staying true to the Southwestern color palette – is a 180-degree about face.”

You can find the previous masterpiece created by my daughter Sienna and the interpretation here. Enjoy!
