Art by Iris

'Puffers' by Iris. A recent favorite of mine.

Iris is my youngest daughter. She is five. Inspired by the creations of her big sister, Iris has cultivated her own fondness for drawing. Watching her come into her own style is one of those great parenting privileges. She is an ardent Bob Ross fan and has declared realism to be her goal.

I was only permitted to photograph a handful of drawings from her art collection book today. Sock monkey barely made the cut as she finds him far too scary.
