There's a small display at my library (http://cityoforange.org/news/displaynews.asp?NewsID=807&targetid=2) of a 4 year old's work.

Of course our tech-backwards website doesn't have images so here are some that I found myself:

Seaenemy (http://moms.ocfamily.com/photo/2070065:Photo:1541?context=user)

Owl (http://moms.ocfamily.com/photo/2070065:Photo:1540?context=user)

Candy (http://moms.ocfamily.com/photo/2070065:Photo:1539?context=user)

Her parents are artists and they have encouraged her to do art since she was 6 months old, using her feet and hands. They say the art was done when she was only 3.

They are displayed differently than viewed online - Seaenemy is corrected to "Sea Anemone" and the 4 pieces are displayed vertically, while the others are, er, rotated. I think the way we have them displayed is correct.

Anyway, I love being able to look at such happy blasts of color all day, as they are displayed across from our desk. :)

Those are pretty sophisticated pieces for a youngster! The color and complexity are amazing.

Heh, I thought this thread was going to be about the documentary from last year, My Kid Could Paint That (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Kid_Could_Paint_That) - about a couple of artists who may or may not have faked their child's masterpieces.

Hopefully the kid did the one's in your library, CP.
