The Nonna Maria Drawing Challenge
Draw Your Granny or Grandpa or Any Relative that You Love!
Now that you have watched Nonna Maria’s story, can you create an illustration or drawing of one of your grandparents (or any relatives that you love!), maybe also reflecting their kindness?
Here are some insights into my creations which hopefully will help inspire you in your drawings:
Here I depicted my granny Maria and her love for being in the kitchen and cooking all sorts of things, but especially pasta, pizza and cakes!
Here I depicted my granny Maria (can you see her?) whilst delivering food to all the neighbours and also some family members. This illustration shows the love of community that my granny had.
Here I depicted the building where my uncle and his family lives. And actually many of the characters (humans or not!) are drawings I made of my friends and also other family members!
