Child Prodigy

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3701484.stm

My friend Christina pointed my attention to this article, and I have to admit to initial skepticism. A kid who was painting things comparable to Jackson Pollock?

But looking at the girl's work, I'm impressed. It's one thing to paint sloppy modern art pieces, but this four-year-old is painting surprisingly cohesive pieces that have a lot of texture and great colors.

And for a four-year-old, she's developing a pretty great savings account. With pieces selling for between eight and ten thousand dollars each, she'll have no problem paying her way through college.
