Cultivating Raw Talent–My Little Artist

Our five-year-old has been participating in Connect with Art summer camp, and we have been amazed with the artwork he’s creating! He usually has paint on his forehead or chalk on his shirt when he comes home, so I was thinking he was merely doodling. But, after seeing four of his pieces for the first time today, I see that he has a gift, and Akua Gaudry is an amazing arts instructor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take a look, and listen to what Lennox shared about each piece:

“Crowded marketplace in Ghana” inspired by Ablade Glover

 Art empowers, teaches, improves self-esteem and builds community
