Valentine's Day

I made this card for Valentine's Day. I also have a sketch I made from a book we read in Miss Karen's class-The Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Fall drawings

I'm seven years old, getting taller and growing as an artist this Fall and I've made these new sketches using my sharpies. The photo is of my friends and I in second grade on our scooters and that's me with the blue shirt and red helmet.

Exploring new mediums

Having just started second grade my art teacher Miss Bell suggested that I try out some new mediums. My dad gave me black prismacolor pencil and I experimented with sketching as well as a few new pieces with sharpies.

Summer photos from San Miguel de Allende

Summer 2009 Drawings

Here are some drawings I made at my home in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico this summer. While I am here I like to go to the hot springs, read, ride my scooter in the park, eat ice cream in the zocalo and give names to all the bugs and butterflies I meet. I made some drawings of a favorite movie called Night at the Museum-there is Larry with his flashlight and the cavemen when they accidentally set a fire. There is a Mexican church and favorite stories like Goose. Most of them are from my imagination like the junkyard with the cello that can be fixed, kid plugging into the sun and man meeting the mermaid.

Seven in the summer

It's been a busy summer in my studio. When you are seven years old and school is out there is so much to do...ride my scooter, swim at the pool, go to the library to read and try out my brand new sharpies. Before we head to our home in Mexico I asked my mom and dad to share these recent drawings and photos taken at Niki de Saint Phalle's garden in Escondido. The colors and crazy creatures are so beautiful that I would like to build a house that looks like that.

An American little boy in Paris

One of my favorite movies is American in Paris. Jerry Mulligan the character played by Gene Kelly lives in a tiny studio in Paris. His room is so small that he has to fold up his bed to make his kitchen. I decided to build his kitchen in my room because it is small too. Then I invited my grandma Pillo to a tea party. I hope you like my movie.
