Budding artists

I may have mentioned this before.  If so, you're going to read it again.  Here goes: Kimball is an amazing artist.  Truly.  He has loved drawing/painting/coloring/sculpting/building since he was very small.  I LOVE seeing what he brings home from school because it is always amazing.  Today I told him that they are going to have an art contest for the yearbook's cover.  I told him that the picture needed to have an eagle (their mascot), 10 years (it's the school's big 10 year anniversary), and the name of his school.  This is what he produced:

Isn't it amazing? (I know I keep using that word...amazing...but it seems to be the only one I can think of that really fits.)  Now let me remind you, he is 7.  I can't wait to see where he goes with this talent.  I hope he runs with it.

Noah and Sloan are also good artists.  Noah was not as interested when he was young, but has recently began showing some skill as well.  He wanted to draw an eagle like Kimball and this is what he came up with:


Holy cow, right? He is a mere 4 years old. Amazing.

And Sloan didn't draw an eagle, but is showing some promise with her scribbles:

I love these AMAZING little artists. (I had to throw it in one last time.) Their masterpieces bring me a lot of joy.
