My Budding Artist


One of Katie's Sunday School teachers is a man named Guillermo. He is an artist who works for Dream Works Studios. When there is time he gives free art lessons to the kids. This has been an incredible blessing for Katie. She has found her true love; drawing.
Yesterday she came home with a page full of animals. I was blown away. Especially the penguin in the middle. She has really grown over the past year in her abilities. I thought I'd share this page with you. There's a lion, elephant, porcupine, bunny, penguin, jaguar, fish, dog, monkey, whale, zebra, and others that I can't remember what she called them. She even signed the bottom because Guillermo said an artist always signs the work!
Enjoy!

  1. The penguin is pretty awesome, but I have to say that my favorite one is the monkey under it. How fun!

  2. She made the monkey and then later made the whale. When she realized the monkey was too close to the whale she decided the monkey was riding the whale and drew the water coming out of the blow hole and covering the monkey. I thought that was pretty clever to "fix" it by changing the story. Thanks for all your encouragement. She told me last night she wants to grow up and work for you drawing.

  3. I'm partial to zebras. It's a confused horse!
