Welcome to the Virtual Refrigerator art link-up! Thank you for joining us as we share what we're creating in our homeschools. We cordially invite you to add your link sharing artwork that's on your Virtual Refrigerator and then hop over to the other blogs and admire what's on their Fridges too! The Virtual Fridge link-up is open all month, with anchor posts planned for each Wednesday.

When does a historical timeline become an art project? Well, that's what happens when the student decides that it's important that these little pictures for the timeline need to be colored. Then she was very unhappy with how the original timeline figure of Joseph Stalin looked when she did color it. I got a message expressing her dismay because the skin tone was all wrong:

Kat: I made a mistake. 😟
(sends me a photo of Stalin, colored)
Kat: HE'S ORANGE
Me: it's not that bad
Kat (sends me another photo, after an attempt to adjust): I'M MAKING IT WORSE
Me: 😂😂😂😂
Kat: I WANT A NEW STALIN
Me: You want to print a whole new page?
Kat: I drew a new Stalin - is that okay?
Me: Yes, if I can quote you in the review and put it on the Virtual Fridge

This is the "new and improved" Stalin on her timeline. A cruel dictator never looked so good, am I right?

Here are a few of the other figures she thought should be in color:

By the way, these are all from the project A Timeline of  World War II from Home School in the Woods that we are reviewing. Please stop by next week for our complete review! (Update - here's the link to the review: Hands-on History with Timelines from Home School in the Woods)
