"maybe I'll be an artist when I grow up"

I'm tired of looking at my stuff. Let's look at Oscar's. He's been really into painting lately.

He's killing me with his cute lately. I like 4.

That is GREAT. I LOVE my daughters art (at age 2) but she has a STRONG preference for brown paint (or black) and I would love to see some colorful pieces :) Who's ever heard of a 2 year old girl who paints in brown?

4 is great. 14 is great. Kids are so cool (when they aren't driving you out of your ever-loving mind.)

Hillary,
My daughter is about a week younger than your O and I am also loving! 4 years old.
She is so creative and fun to be with.

This is a lovely painting. I'd love to know the artist's description of it.

I loved, loved, loved four. I had two more kids just so I could have four a few more times :)

hmmm, I think there could be a softie in here somewhere....? My daughter is almost two, but already does little scribbles and declares that they are babies or Daddy or a boat or something. I'm looking forward to trying to translate a drawing or two of hers into a softie - when she's older and can do a scribble that actually does look like something!

I miss my boys being 4! It was such a great time, I am jealous of you!
Oscar must get his talent from you! His painting is just wonderful!

Hi Oscar, love the monster painting. It seems you like the same color yellow as your mom.

Hi Hillary. I just started up a new blog that will offer monthly creativity challenges for kids and also have posts by kids about the things they have made. I thought Oscar might be interested in submitting a blog post of one of his art pieces.(you can do the typing!).

This looks VERY much like the paintings my son makes! I love them.
