My child is a genius

Okay, admit it. If you have children, you’re convinced your kids are genius material as well.

I came out of the shop one day to discover this huge drawing Neko had done on the new driveway. It’s a great drawing, but it’s extra amazing because it’s really tough to work that big. When you draw large, you lose a sense of scale and location. Later on she drew a really great, life-size dinosaur.

And just in case you can’t tell, this is a drawing about someone dreaming about getting a pet chihuahua. (Detail in bottom photo.) That would be my only reservation in calling this genius material, because, lordy, who wants to own a chihuahua?

    Very impressive, indeed. Love the two small teeth that are coming in.

    Wow, that’s really something! I agree with Anne about the teeth, and also I like the three small hairs coming up on top of the head in both the big version and the dream version. Attention to detail! Love it!

    I don’t know if I can be objective, but it is really hard to imagine a kid her age getting the perspective and proportion right!
