Painting With Eva

My seven-year-old daughter, Eva,  joined my in my studio to try some oil painting. Up until now, she's worked only in watercolor and gouache.  We shared a large glass palette and mixed colors with our palette knives, then painted objects from observation. Eva painted a collection of cacti, and I painted a pot with dried poppies.
