Artist

When the mood strikes, our resident 9 year old artist can think of nothing but completing his envisioned artwork. A picture in a book, magazine, or photo can inspire Ethan to create. When he is creating, he will ignore everything else around him. Everything! He likes sketch work, charcoal, colored pencils and collage art. Quite a variety... I must say!

We got permission to sign him up for a middle school art class with Luke and he is loving it! The examples above are things he did on his own, now I just need to encourage him to be "inspired" to do his homework. "I'm not in the mood to draw a chair, Mommy. It's not interesting." Oh dear! What a fickle artist!

Just in time for class, he was inspired and created his chair. 

My favorite part was the smile on his face when he finished.
