A year of drawing
Austin Kleon:
My son Jules woke up on Christmas last year and started drawing. He was 2. (His birthday is in March.)
Inspired by Sylvia Fein’s book Heidi’s Horse, which collects her daughters drawings from toddler to teenage years, I thought it’d be interesting to see how his drawings developed over the next 12 months.
There are some delightful and adorable images and commentary here. I especially love the part where he drew some skeletons on their outdoor couch cushions:
They were so good we couldn’t bear to clean them off, so my wife got out her sewing machine and embroidered them.
