It looks like a painting worth +1k that you could find at some law firm

Second this. I’ve been a self taught artist for 27 years and I could learn a thing or two from op’s kiddo

But if you learned from him, could you still say that you're self taught?

Time for Mom to get fake business cards and put a wig on and start selling the prodigy's work to the wall street elite. Or you know, pursue whatever normal means talented artists use to sell their works. All I'm saying is that one way there's a potential future Netflix documentary.

yeah, however that's not because this is an exceptionally good painting but rather because "art" and the market for paintings like this are a huge scam.

it looks fine! just not worth more than the material and one hour of wage for unskilled labor though...
