Serious critiques of children's artwork.... genius and hilarity all-in-one.

You should immediately bookmark the blog What My Kids' Art Says (and submit your kid's artwork too)! I first found the link to this unique site on Design Mom and totally agree with her prediction that it will be the next big thing.

Dan Consiglio's blog gives me some hope that I will be able to understand the meaning behind all the glitter, cotton-ball, hand-print-turkey, macaroni artwork that my daughter is going to create in the next decade. You will love his humor and sarcasm... even his profile blurb had me chuckling: I have three kids. I know art. I think we're done here.

I submitted the below masterpiece created by my daughter Sienna and it was reviewed recently.  But you'll have to visit Dan's blog to read for yourself his interpretation. I knew my child's use of washable animal stamps was genius, but his review only confirms it for me.

I love comments....they help me figure out what you enjoy reading! I read and appreciate every single one but I receive so much email that it is impossible for me to reply to everyone! Please email me directly if you have a specific question and please leave your email if it isn't published on your profile.... otherwise I don't have the means to contact you!
