Penguins

IMG_0813 06/21/2010

The first time Clara told me what she was drawing she was about 17 months.  She scribbled some black crayon on a piece of paper, pointed at it, and said, ‘penguin.’ 

Penguins are still a popular subject in her artwork.  Here she is displaying a penguin that she drew on her doodle pad.  They are most often the result of drawing a ‘V’, then turning it into an ‘upside-down A’, and then finally adding eyes, flippers and, in this case, either grass or toes…I’m not sure which. 

Let me know if you are interested in purchasing a piece of her ‘Polderman Penguin’ collection.  She is prolific, so we can fill orders quickly.

Her drawing is amazing, Erin. Since I work with Kdg. children I'm aware of the levels of "drawing" and "writing" that young children do. Clara is definitely ahead of many I see--you can tell what it is! Tell her that she's a great artist!! (and what cost do her pictures demand??)
