Saved Kids!

 

 

 

So Dietrich had a drawing break-through last week. He is such a perfectionist that he is very unsure of himself with drawing and won't try to do anything representational, especially people. But last Thursday he drew his first people -- though, if you talk with him about it, please refer to them as "kids" because he is very, very specific about what he was trying to draw. Despite how excited I was for him about how they turned out, I ended up narrowly saving them from destruction as they were deemed unacceptable by the artist. Ah well, maybe he will be less scared to try it next time. Poor Dietrich and his unattainable Picture in His Head. I totally understand.
