My daughter's latest creation

[richy]

It amazes me how quickly she bangs these things out. This parrot was done in about 5 minutes. I love the detail on the feet and eyes:

For those of you who don't know, she's 8 years old!

 

[RoadRageDetail]

Better than I could do if I HAD eight years. Good stuff, she's going places if you keep encouraging her!

 

[ExpressDetail]

Sweet. Now the bad news......This is made out of your high grade detailing clay and she added adhesive to it. :bat:

 

[snellvilleauto]

She's a natural.

Ya, no kidding..she doesn't get that skill from me!! We have her in an art class once a week for 1/5 hrs.

I give her my Riccardo clay when I'm done with it. I posted a creation she did on here using only detailing clay. I'll add the link if I can find it.
Ya, here it is:

She's a natural.

Thanks! I'm a proud poppa!!

That's pretty cool Richy, really! rops:

The reason she's able to do it is because she's 8. If I tried it at my age I'd crash and burn ending up with something similar to road kill.....:laughing:

I'd have trouble just making a glob of clay into a ball! Money well spent on the art class but the natural talent has to be there.....which it is.

 

[Alex Boyce]

Very talented, I'd just roll the clay out flat and then let it dry out and call it a plate, or a coaster, or a Frisbee

Nice!

Thanks Bobby! I hope she never gets bored of doing this.

I hear ya Rick. She obviously didn't get that talent from me!

Thanks Alex, that would be about my effort too.

Nice!

Thank you.

OK, but I got first dibs when you sell it on ebay!

 

[Pockets@PoorboysWorld]

Very cool Richy!

You must be very proud!

 

[ozziepuppy]

That's really good! I especially like the way she did the feet!

 

[derek0609]

Wow!! Very cool and good!! Keep encouraging her!

Just steer her away from technical illustration, it's what I do and it's boooorrring!

 

[oldgeek]

Our forum hosts should send that young lady a case of clay!
(Surely you have some that is close to the expiration date.)
