Arden: The Abstract Impressionist of the Seas

A while back, Arden sent an original piece of artwork to the League of Melbotis.

I've been meaning to share since, oh, March. But I was getting a glass of water and looking at the picture as it was placed (by magnet) on our fridge. And it occured to me that I could get this thing posted.



Anyhow, here's Arden's depiction of a Blue Shark. I think its pretty good. The kid is either going to be a marine biologist or the next Monet.

Arden is, by the way, Jill and Jess's kid. He lives in Michigan, where there is a tragic lack of narwhals.

And, yes, if you send me your kid's drawings, I will post them.

This picture has been on our fridge for months, but I am just now noticing the disturbing red blob...

Was this Wii a birthday present? We need to exchange Wii info and Mii's.

McSteans, he is well aware of the circle of life! He might be a vegetarian, but he will tell you about the carnivorous ways of the shark. Biologist in the making.

I look forward to Arden going crazy and growing an old sea captain's beard at age 16, and constantly wandering around in a yellow slicker and captain's hat.
