According to Crayola, their sidewalk chalk is made from Plaster of Paris and color pigments.
Amazing how a couple of simple ingredients result in a drawing medium of fun.
Along with friendly sayings and interesting spatial designs we've been seeing a lot of horse drawings thanks to Sarah.
After she drew this picture I knew I had to take a picture or it would be lost to water and/or wear.
Apparently chalk drawings can live on and still be rewarding even when the original is gone thanks to modern technology.
Although abstract expressionism sums up the majority of the sidewalk art at our home we have found that the art we make with chalk is a gift for young and old alike.
Allow yourself to enjoy some art this week-from the abstract to the detailed whether man-made or natural.

We sure have talented girls. They are all artists and musicians. I am always amazed at what they can do as they get older.
Hi Trisha,
I am just getting back into blogging after a month off. It is fun to see all the great stuff on yours. I love the horse. Great job.
