Well . . . doesn't he just frost my pickles! It is seldom that I thumb something down but this site and artist I do - the idea that he makes childrens's art 'better' by re-painting 'realistically' what they have already drawn is ridiculous. Reading the press clippings, all seem to herald his 'inventiveness' and children are invited to submit their own work with a statement of what their drawing is, but have to keep it short so he can work with it - it all smacks of a gimmick to me by someone who is better at copying than creating work on his own. Children have a natural way of drawing - untrained and very truthful - why remove that lovely talent. Picasso said, " Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up."

really fun idea. found this while checking out borderline's reviews... the artist/author takes a child's drawing of a monster or superhero and gives it life by turning it into a more "realistic" painting.

What a great idea....paintings based on the question "What would a child's drawing look like if it were painted realistically?".
