Artist Hideout

Who’s your monster? Inspiration from Children.

by William Lehman on July 13th, 2007

I have always found children’s artwork to be interesting in both their young imaginations and the details that they choose to incorporate into the work.

I ran across this page today and I thought I’d share. It takes a Child’s drawing and an artist comes along after the child and “finishes” the work.

Here’s an example.

or this one

I may have to take a blank canvas to church on Sunday and ask some kids to draw on it and see what I can come up with using their work as inspiration.
