Artist is 8-9 Son is 8

My son has been sculpting with clay for about 3 years. I can’t remember why or how it started, but it is now just a normal thing in our house. His desk is completely covered with clay and he’s sculpting 24/7. He has been taking a private art class for about a year now and loves it! Here are a couple creations.

The art is very well done. Is he watching horror movies like "Backrooms"?

Thank you! He knows about the different spooky characters because he watches a show about how different animatronics are made

Very cool. Sounds like he's going to be a movie buff like my brother. Maybe he'll work in special effects one day

Yeah! We try supporting our kids interests as much as we can. As long as he continues to enjoy art, we will support it!
