Romilly loves to draw. And paint. And scribble. And constructively squeeze playdough until there are tiny little pieces smeared into every piece of fabric and carpet in a ten metre radius. It was quite strange, therefore, that we did not sooner introduce her to the art of drawing on the computer. After a five minute tutorial on how to use the mouse, she was away. A week later, we had a custom paint program written specifically for youngsters.

This seems to have affected her drawing style.

As Romilly has been saying all week: “Ladies and gentlemen! Boys and girls!”, I give you “Frog Jumping into Pond”:

For those that are not so educated in the ways of art as Romilly, that’s the pond on the left.
