Children masterpieces already abound here. This picture probably shows a child's quite amazing and surprisingly smart artwork. The picture might show a sketch, painting, or maybe a sculpture with a degree of intellectual thinking, inventiveness, or artistic ability well above what one would usually find from a young artist. The "masterpiece" might be a very accurate portrait, a sophisticated abstract composition, or even a three-dimensional work demonstrating a natural awareness of form and proportion. Along with the artwork itself, the photographer has caught maybe the proud young creator standing next to their accomplishment, radiating rightfully earned pride. The background could provide hints about the creative process: a disorganized art table, strewn tools, or perhaps even the walls of a children's art show. This picture reminds me strongly of the amazing potential and free will of young brains given the chance to express themselves. It asks viewers to reevaluate their ideas of children's work and maybe even questions the nature of artistic ability and development. Celebrating the original viewpoint and unvarnished expression children offer to the realm of art, the picture probably inspires awe and respect.
