KID'S ART | POSTERS

The little boys down the street have accumulated quite a collection of paintings and drawings in their rooms over the past couple years, and today I will be sharing them. Since 2012 I have given either a drawing or a painting to them, usually in sync with their recent interests.

Today I will be posting the past three years of presents that one of the boys has received, beginning in 2012. At 5 he adored Angry Birds...

...at six it was all things Mario, especially Yoshi...

Painting for the two cuties is always different, always challenging (what if he changes his interest before I get the painting done?), and always rewarding. It's a chance to step outside of my normal style and try something new. Here's to many more birthday paintings and drawings!
