Moment of cuteness

Back-to-back MOCs! How on Earth do you people get so lucky?

We were hanging out in the kitchen the other day when Ava got interested in doing some art. Typically, she’ll just freehand and go off in whatever direction her imagination takes her. For this session, I thought it might be interesting to see what she’d do with a model. I grabbed one of Leah’s fancy dried gourds from the living room and set it on the counter in front of Ava. It was fascinating to see her relating to her subject. When she finished, she’d produced a pretty passable picture. Or maybe I thought so just because I knew what she was drawing. If you look closely here, you can see she’s coloring in a shape that vaguely resembles the gourd in front of her.
