Learning together with older sister / お姉ちゃんと一緒に

Sometime we have small children who come with their older sisters and brothers. I guess they don't want to be alone at home. Whoever comes, they can learn art and experience their art world. This little girl was seriously thinking what to draw. After a while later, she started drawing on the paper with crayon. It reminds me of a movie of "my neighbor Totoro", Mei and Satsuki. It is very beautiful to see that sisters and brothers are taking care of each other.

時々、お姉ちゃんやお兄ちゃんと一緒にきた小さな生徒も授業に加わります。おそらく家で一人でいるのが寂しいからでしょう。どんな小さな生徒であっても、独自のアートの世界を体験しています。この女の子は、クレヨンを手にしてから、真剣に何を描くか悩んでいました。しばらくした後、夢中に描いていました。この姉妹を見て、「となりのトトロ」のメイちゃんとさつき姉妹を思い出しました。兄弟仲良く、机を並べて一緒に学ぶ姿は美しいです。
