This is Max

Paper portrait

Sometimes I have a little debate with myself; is it better to let creativity be completely self-directed, or better to give guidance?

Sadly, I always end up with the same unsatisfactory response of "both" — I’m the same with the nature/nurture debate.

This character is a creation by my boy (aka Mohawk Dude). He helped himself to the elements from our craft cabinet (a buffet), and spent a good bit of time getting this Just Right. I love that he labeled all the parts, and drew in the ear canals as he’d been taught at Disney’s California Adventure.

    Cute! So you didn’t really say — how much help did he get with this one?
    Just curious…

    This is 100% his creation from start to finish — no imput from Mama whatsoever. :-)

  3. I like him! I really have to watch myself when the kids are crafting…I tend to give way too many suggestions.
