Yesterday I found myself at my twin sister's place and - while my sister and I were enjoying a coffee - my niece and nephew ( who asked for a movie first and didn't get a YES ), started doing what they often do: drawing.
In fact, my 5 and a half year old niece, Yumi, started some kind of speed drawing, coming up with two dozen or so drawings in a minute or 10. A series of drawings that were slightly similar but all different .
She was clearly in a flow state.
Unfortunately I don't have pictures of that speedy art but this picture was taken a little earlier:
Suffice to say that it was starting to get harder and harder for my 7 and three seasons old nephew - who takes some more time for his drawings - to find empty sheets of paper.
The day before ( I spend the night in their half a century old camper van on their land ), I had made some drawings for them, on demand, that M and Y colored, as pictured below ( and on top ).
But, in all honesty, I really enjoy to see them come up with their own creations.
Like these training dinos, created by Miko:
Top left: dino pulling itself up
No idea what the tiny one next to it is doing
Top right: dino on a treadmill
The other two are clearly lifting weights haha!
Miko told me that his 'quick' coloring was due to the pencils going empty. I like his coloring style though.
And this tortoise is drawn by Yumi:
A focused Yumi who starts to get really good at actually putting the caps on her coloring pencils nowadays aside from getting a skilled drawer.
Just now I decided to create an account for the two of them. They can't get started with crypto young enough ;<)
I have no idea how active they will get on here - they are being home schooled and actually have plenty of time - but knowing how they pick up on their uncle's / my interests ( Miko asking me to draw a dino and drawing dinos himself tells you enough ), they might be seriously interested.
In fact,they will have a sleep over at my place ( Tuesday on Wednesday ) for the first time in ages, so I can't promise I'll post with them one of those days.
I realized I could post this from their new account but I might do an introductory post too and have to talk with their parents about this first. Also it would be fun if Miko and Yumi help me with that write up ;<)
TO BE CONVINUED...
50% of the pay outs of this post will go to the freshly created @mikoandyumi You could give them a follow but I will probably reblog their posts so if you follow my account you likely won't miss out on them.
