My little student

My little girl is my teacher/muse as much as I am hers. She wanted to draw and paint as soon as she arrived home from school. I was just finishing up my adult painting lesson. I guess this inspired her!
She used charcoal and pastel to draw a light bulb and some sculpture we have on the mantel in the classroom.
I usually never show her or tell her how to draw something. Children are natural artists, with wild and unhindered spirits.

Although I did show her how to make gray, she really was really excited.
This light bulb is my favorite.
