Look, I'm a K-12 state certified art teacher. If people take the time to look up what is called "the stages of artistic development" they will find that Marla is on par with other children her age, if not slightly behind in her development. Around her age children enjoy the kinetic nature of art making (pushing around paint) and begin early attempts at symbol making.

It's actually true because all 4 year olds can still remember what they were surrounded by before they were born - or even conceived. She's not a genius, her parents just aren't oblivious to her talents, like most parents are. If all children were recognized and allowed to do what they could with their imagination... wow, I can't even imagine the impact.

[cpkelley]

yes. if i gave my students nice canvas and more than the 45 minutes that public schools allow for art they could do the same. as i stated before, check out the artistic stages of development. i have 4-5 years olds who can make complex symbols, she's just moving paint.

[hecalledherbob]

you're probaly right. it's all about marketing and she's gets really good expensive materials

[cpkelley]

i say there is nothing that makes her different from any other child her age skill-wise. the thing that sets her apart is that she has a marketing team in her parents and dealer. just let her make art without greedy adults around her.

[hecalledherbob]

so do you like it or not, or you don't think it's worth the hype?

[hecalledherbob]

i love the pre raphaelites it's such a step up from manerism. and the wonderful poems and stories that go with them. the women have flowing hair and are in love, those stiff classical poses are all the same, just annoy and bore me.

I live in Kamloops, BC. The Closest "big city" is at least 4 hours away.

Oh, and no I can't afford it...I'm paying my way through school. I like how people just think that everyone can drop what they're doing to go places.

[laughinsilence]

where do you live, theres one in every major city, im pretty sure if you could afford the pc you are using you could afford the bus there.

trust me, it might seem boring but you can really enjoy it, i mean, you will get bored if you go there second or a third time since you already seen all the paintings but, its nice to see them just once

Actually the Renaissance is a little overrated. They discover a sense of depth and brought back the classical Greek style, but the Barroque art perfected that; furthermore, I believe the Dutch masters did more with their paintings as they raised the idea of depth along with contrast of light and shadow. Abstract painting is supposed to be left for interpretation, instead of focusing on your emotions, it focuses on your mind.

I'd like to get to a museum but hmmm...I LIVE NOWHERE NEAR ONE.
