artist!
Our school does an activity called "Art Through the Ages". Once a month (I think) parent volunteers come in and teach art classes focusing on various artists or art styles. Every class participates and each child does an art project relating to that month's lesson.
I was not aware that each child's art was being judged and at some point each month, a school winner was declared.
That is until Spencer came home to tell me he's been the school winner, TWICE.
His painting above was a school winner. He was a little grumped about it because they told the kids they had to paint a lady, and being the manly man that he is, he probably wanted to paint an alien-zombie-death shooter that had blood dripping out of its eyes and lazer fingers. But fortunately, he complied and won.
He also did some kind of a faux-stained glass picture that won the school competition and was then sent off to the district competition.
I have not even seen his faux-stained glass picture, but way to go Spencer!
