ES|| Más ilustraciones del Calendario Montessori 2023, el cual, como ya sabréis, está enfocado en distintas maneras de cuidar el planeta. Una de las cosas más importantes para mejorar el medio ambiente es reducir el consumo de plásticos y hay infinidad de maneras de hacerlo, por ejemplo, buscar juguetes de otros materiales. La verdad es que siempre me sorprende la gran variedad de alternativas que hay a los típicos juegos de plástico. A mí, personalmente, me encantan los juguetes de madera con formas orgánicas e inspiradas en la naturaleza (sobre todo si son de madera recogida de forma sostenible y de proximidad)! 🌱

I whittled a collection of fruit and veg for my nephew. All hand carved from basswood with a Carvin’ Jack knife and lightly finished with a smooth sandpaper to preserve the faceted look of the knife cuts. Main body colors were applied with an airbrush using Vallejo Model Air paint. Details painted on by hand with brush. First real foray into carving and will be doing lots more.

“A friend once asked me what the meaning to life was. Must there be only one? Meaning weaves itself through the giggling of a child as he buries his face in my chest. Meaning smiles down on me as I wish the dog on the corner good morning and good night each day. Meaning plays peek-a-boo with my kittens as they chase their toys and deposit them loyally by my feet. Meaning is here. Meaning is everywhere. It is simply up to us to see it, to recognize it, to hope for more.”
