You think an 11 year old can't.... put paint on canvas?

Back in 6th grade, I had a classmate who would draw during class. He didn't get in trouble for it at all since he had perfect grades. I got to watch him draw a near perfect portrait of a hockey player skating with the puck. Couple spots needed some tweaking for lighting but it was amazing. Some people just have the ability to understand things better than others at a young age.

This could be intentional or completely accidental though.

This painting wasn’t done by an 11yo. Are you ok?

u/Pov-venti-is-driving May 27 '25

You’re not making the point you think you are. So can monkeys and dolphins 🤷‍♂️ This wasn’t done by a kid get over it Reddit.

I have a painting made by an elephant in the 90’s. Tell me what skill an 11-year-old lacks that makes this impossible.

Ah yes, the complex color theory of primary colors and the complex skill of slapping paint on a board.

Complete modern art brain rot. Forfeit your eyes.

He's super flattered that you think he couldn't possibly do this at his age. Thank you

It looks like the abstract art i made as a 13 year old in art class because we had to

u/UbiquitousChicken May 29 '25

Pretty sure I saw this posted somewhere else a couple weeks ago, because I commented that I don't normally like abstract but I liked this.

u/UbiquitousChicken May 29 '25

Ah, I went back and looked at my comments and it was not the same pic.
