I love children’s art.
I’m inspired by
the imperfections,
the innocence,
the absence of ego.
Today my kindergartener
was so proud of the
“first ocean picture”
he’d ever made,
complete with a shark
and a sandy beach above.
Honestly,
I’m not sure I could have
drawn it any better,
so I wouldn’t have
even thought of trying.
And yet he went for it
without hesitation
and was thrilled…
not only with the result,
but by the process of creating it.
He’s only five,
but he’s a pretty awesome teacher.
