Kid's stuff

Isn't kids art great? My 4 year old grandson loves to paint and draw and gets stuck in with a frightening concentration which I wish I could match. And he doesn't take kindly to any direction or suggestions. His 'blue' immediately reminded me of Yves Klein's 'Blue monochrome', and Freddie's insistence that no other colour was needed added to the connection. It's just blue! The Klein is the one on the left

The same with composition-it's purely instinctive and natural; no great debates, pre-sketches, trials or anguish about just 'where' a shape should go, bam, it's there, and it works. Would that we adults could keep this pure, un-manipulated intuition. The Roger Hilton painting I think has the same instinctive quality, but I would love to know how quickly he reached his final composition!
Roger Hilton's in the one in the middle, the 'monster on the right, just because I like it.
