Kids Art amazes me. In the coming weeks, I'd like to introduce and feature some of my favorite kids and their art. Here's the first:
Aaron C.
Aaron C. is 10 years old. He is the son of Shane and Alicia...and Shane has been like a little brother to me since we were kids ourselves. A little background: I brought Shane home from school one day (I was in Eighth, Shane in Seventh) because my sister (in Fifth grade) thought he was really cute. Since that moment, he became a member of the family. Shane's family and my family became very close. His older brother Greg was even my first kiss!! Unfortunately, with our crazy lives and distance between us all we don't get to visit very often. We all got to visit at the Holiday's this past Christmas and this is when I got to see HOW VERY EXCELLENT an artist Aaron has become.
Aaron loves to draw and he's got piles of character drawings, action drawings and stories to go with all of them. He's got the talent and the passion! Not only that, he's a charming, charismatic and sweet boy too. He was so good with my two nephews that evening that he melted my heart. Of course, I felt an affinity with him because of his love for art and drawing. I was honored that he gave me a few drawings too!!!! (They proudly sit with me at my art desk)
Here's the first one. I don't remember what Aaron titled it, so I refer to it as "Serpent Attack!"
Here's a close-up to see the cool character faces and costuming!
And finally, here is a drawing of Harold Jalsone. Aaron told me that Harold was my new boyfriend. I asked him what Harold did for a living and he told me that he was a Skateboard Designer! How cool is that!?!!!! No accountants for me! Woo hooo.
Gimme a call, Harold!

Aaron has a real sense of color. It makes his drawings "pop" I wish him much success in the future.
Nice boyfriend :)
These are great, Paige! I'm a big fan of kid art, too -- especially my 4 1/2 year-old daughter's work. I feature her work very prominently on my blog, probably more than my own work. It's worth it, though. And she loves to draw things so I can "put it in the compooter." She and I both get a big kick out of that.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of Aaron's work! Keep it up.
Hi Paige!
I just found your blog... now I am really looking forward to Fridays to see your illos. :)

I love kid's drawings probably more then any other kind and Aaron's are wonderful !
I wish I could draw like Aaron! And I'll bet he drew it with no-holds-barred. Meaning, sans failure-anxiety. O to be a kid!
Very cool, the kid's got imagination.
Ooh, Harold looks and sounds like quite the catch!
wow~
That Serpent is dangerous. Run ~sonny~ run!
It was awsome to see kids art. They have eyes to those tiny things that we adult couldn't see.
My child loves drawing, I am a huge fan of his too.
Come visit me at artswonderland.com and see his art for yourself.
