If I knew this kid was going to be as famous as Picasso, I'd buy a couple of his paintings at $1,000 each and insure my Grand-kids college education.

Well, here’s our next hero, to replace Tiger Woods. He’s way too young to be an adulterer.

He easily transitions from XBOX video games to canvas and watercolors.

Dam that really good at any age

That kid has a good sense of perspective which doesn’t usually come till much later in an artist’s development.

Also his color sense and light touch are really nice.

Picasso actually studied art in the correct academic manner and as a competent artist before he went “nuts”. Check out some of his early works.

I say “competent”. Not particularly “GREAT”.

"Developing a young talent like this is a delicate process."

You are so right. Our son was a prodigy on violin at age 3. We kept him playing all of his life. He became an excellent musician on the violin, but not a master. Instead, he became a master on the Mandolin, which he loves. You can do your best, but they do what they will do in spite of you.

This child is an excellent artist for his age. His sense of depth and perspective is outstanding.
