Becoming Picasso

So the preschool art show.  It's kinda amazing.  I mean, people just walk around in awe.  Our preschool teacher chooses a famous artist for each year's show and then the kids select one of his (or her, although it has always been a man) paintings and paints a copy of it.  

And they are just so incredible.  This year's artist was Picasso and Ben chose "Enamel Saucepan."  Here is Picasso's rendering:

And here's Ben's version:

 You're impressed, aren't you?  The teacher doesn't physically help them paint, but they do mix colors for them and use a pointer to help them figure out proportions and stuff.  But still, he's three.  It's awfully impressive.  

And he was pretty proud.  We all were.  Great job, Benny!
