Lighthearted, it obviously doesn’t matter but what age would you think these were by?

I have absolutely zero drawing ability, neither does DH or our other DC (yet) so I thought these were amazing.

They're really very good indeed.

My dc was identified as gifted and talented at Art aged about 9. They were very talented and got a grade 9 GCSE and top grade A level.

They started an Art degree, but didn't continue (as it took all of the passion out of it).

10-12 would have been my guess. I went to art school and my Dd was considering it so I've seen her drawings growing up and she'd have done that by then.
My DD did GCSE art and at A level. She found that the prescriptiveness did take some of the joy out of it. Hated having to do a theme or 'in the style of'. She loved animating and would do little films for herself. She did do and Art and Design Foundation course but decided against a career in it though as jobs are scarce snd mainly freelance.
It's great to have a passion for something and don't get too hung up on whether she can eventually monetise it - some things should be done just for the joy of it.

Thank you for the kind messages
I will definitely keep up with praise and encourage but don't want to add any pressure or expectations for her.
She's very much has the impression that she's no good at anything at the moment and falling behind all her friends at school
