I was recently on another site where they were highlighting an illustrator who takes childrens' drawings and makes them into full-color grown-up illustrations. Though his illustrations are quite amazing, I'm afraid that it would just freak out our resident, 4 yr. old artist to see his scribbles turned into life-like paintings. . .
Still, it could be fun to make the machine monster, who supposedly makes bad toys into good toys (a result of a lot of Nightmare Before Christmas this holiday season, no doubt), a fun painting for his studio.
