This is my 4 & 6 year old daughters' favorite game. We play memory and go fish and have a ball.

A great game for anyone interested in art and teaching their children about art.             Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1841-1919: A dream of harmony4 reviews Peter H Feist Barnes and Noble, 2000 Geniuses' full color reproductions. I'm in love with The Impressionists in general and with Auguste Renoir in particular. His palette is full of light; soft pink, greens and blues are a joy to watch time and again. As most Impressionists Renoir paint wonderful every day scenes, mainly outside as his magnificent: "The Luncheon of the Boating Party" (1881), "The Swing" (1876) and "Le Moulin de la Galette" (1876), whose careful ...             Impressionist Quilts: A Color and Design Manual6 reviews Gai Perry Watson-Guptill Publications, 1995 Excellent examples of 'painting' with floral fabrics. Walking through Joanne's Fabrics, Gai Perry's book caught my eye.

Using her easy to follow instructions, the wall hanging was a success. Now I'm quilting my interpretation of the Buchart Garden's on Vancover Island in B.C. On the drawing table is a moon ...             Katie Meets The Impressionists12 reviews James Mayhew Scholastic, 1999 Katie Meets the Impressionists James Mayhew set the bar high with this adventurous and educational story.

We have since purchased the series of Katie books and enjoy sharing them with other children.             Impressionist Palette: Quilt Color & Design4 reviews Gai Perry C&T Publishing, 1997 Impressionist Palette is a superb manual for watercolour. Of the many books currently available on watercolour quilting, Impressionist Palette is, in my opinion, the best. The pictures are absolutely stunning; the quilts exquisite. Apart from being an art book, the instructions on the technique of watercolour quilting are extremely clear and well-written, making it possible for myself, a fearful watercolourist, to attempt and succeed in making a ...             Childe Hassam, American Impressionist5 reviews H.Barbara; etc. Weinberg Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2004 An essential addition to American Impressionist literature My feelings about this book mirror the feelings I had when I attended the exhibition this catalogue is drawn from.

For those of you who have only worked with kits and lusted after the VERY EXPENSIVE Elizabeth Bradley kits, this is the way to go.
