The Book of Kells was written by monks in the 800's in a monestary in Ireland. It contains the first four gospels in Latin. It is one of Ireland's most treasured artifacts and is displayed at Dublin University. The Book is considered the greatest representation of illuminated manuscript, where the monks would actually layer the pages and letters with real gold making them glow or illuminate in the candlelight.
Mackenzie colored this page from the Book of Kells.
Harper made her own page to replicate the precise nature of the writing and painted the sides with watercolor.
The girls also performed in the bi-annual piano recital this month. They both memorized their songs this year. I am so proud of their hard work and practice time.
