had the godkids over for christmas. the 8 year old made this with sculpey and when pressed called it “you know, an i-am-me sort of thing…” with this casual flip of her wrist, having complete confidence in her artistic statement to express her vision.

and it does!!! that’s the perfect description!!!

#i made something in a similar art style right next to her and added a flat backing to keep mine secure #i told her i’d bake hers for her but she expects a sturdy disc of a piece and girl didn’t exactly skip and score those coils #so i’m going to be gong in and meticulously solidifying the piece in a way that does not disrupt her vision #for thise interested: she started with just pastels but they were in short supply. her older sister had called dibs on the bright rainbows #so that left her the neutrals and the excess of black i already had and also the glittery navy i scrunged up from the bottom of a drawer #the craft we were doing was to make flat little trays for the candles we were also making #i started with coils so she did as well ofc and beyond that she ran wild and free with her heart #i also have two acrylic paintings she busted out while we were making brunch while truly pressed for time #one of a sunset and one of the rainy day we are having #she’s BRILLIANT
