weinraub’s words

Becca has been on a tear lately drawing pictures. Characters mostly have bodies now, but the eyes have gotten much smaller, to the point of becoming dots, though she usually adds eyelashes. Her girl pics almost always feature hair and earrings, sometimes even those old princess-style or Southern-belle-style dresses that make the girl’s ass look like an over-inflated Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade float.

But Becca has now added a new twist to the presentation. She brings over the picture, hidden behind her back. With a proud and impish smile, she tells me to cover my eyes; dutifully I obey. Then at her command, I open my eyes and she puts the picture under my nose, announcing “Tada!”

Where do they learn this stuff?

Here are two recent drawings from Becca. so proud of them I just wanted to share.

Not a bug

Apparently, torsos are optional.

Draw and name your family

The instructions for this school assignment were to draw pictures of your family and write their names underneath. Becca did all the mechanics herself, though I did suggest some positioning and I did have to verbalize some of the letters so she could write them.

Torsos seem to have made it into this creation.

I don’t know why I get glasses. I think she is playing with the technique of adding glasses to her characters. And couldn’t be more pleased that I seem to have a tail. A tail.

And Annie has turned into a blonde. Woo hoo!

Also notable is that she intentionally made angry eyebrows for Benjamin. They’ve been fighting a bit lately.

Way to go Becca!
