    I think she was injected with weetabix from an early age.

    At 4, had a life-changing spiritual
    transformation, converting the family to Christianity.

    Say what? A 4 year old has a "spritiual transformation" worthy of converting the entire family to Christianity? How does that work?

    Eh. Wow.

    I don't care what age the artist is...

    those paintings are absolutely VILE!

    It's like something Napoleon Dynamite would paint.

    The poetry is pretty horrible too...

    there was a big thread on this on somethingawful.com, but i'm too lazy to link to it. the general consensus was that the girl does have a huge amount of talent when it comes to the actual painting of the picture but there's not a great deal of creativity in them. She could be a truly great artist someday if she starts coming up with original ideas, but for now she's just "reproducing" art.

    for some ultra awesome art check out this guy:

    Says it all really. :rolleyes:


    I suppose technically her paintings are excellent for a 10 year old but I wouldn't have any of them hanging in my living room.
