Sushi Attack

Created November 2007

Ethan, the other budding artist, has taken up a liking to painting recently. Here is an early painting of his that just isn't a huge, 3 inch deep slop of paint all mushed together in a brown mess.

It's quite vibrant, filled with energy, and resembles fishbones. yum.
