But is it Art?

My daughter is a genius. No, really! Not only is her new word "Brilliant!" (as in, oddly, "The dark is brilliant, isn't it Mummy?") but she can draw with remarkable anatomical accuracy, as evidenced by this amazing chalk-on-blackboard representation of a giant:

Note the pointy head, eyes, mouth, central body, arms with hands, and you can't see the legs with feet.

Clearly I should have sent her to nursery so she could develop to her full potential. She's not quite two and a half, after all.

You know what I'm going to say, don't you? I should be staying at home with Jack because he's three and not drawing anything like that!

I was going to say what Linz said.
Rhiannon rarely draws anything that is representive. Maybe I have given her too many picture books. When she does have blank paper, she usually ends up drawing round her hands or feet.
