To ask what age you think drew this picture?

[amiaweirdoo]

Trying to work out if it is good or not. Does this look like a child that has artistic potential and how old would you expect the child that drew that to be?

All of this.

It's a nice drawing, OP! Make sure your child has plenty of decent art materials and access to art in the flesh if possible - galleries, books, etc.

I'm 44 and it's way beyond my talents!

I’ve been out and had fish and chips. We still don’t know how old this kid is!

I would say 10 or 11
its very good though

The nasty posters on here who are slagging off a child, whatever the age…I know there are often posts like these but time on mn is certainly best spent when it’s in the encouragement of a child. The nasty sarcastic comments tell us more about the poor character of the commenters than the artistic potential of the child who drew the picture. Some grown adults have the class of a sludge bucket. I’m sure ‘FFS’ or similar will be incoming in droves.

You are taking the comments on here VERY personally! 😆 How strange.......! As someone said, no-one is 'slagging of a child,' FFS. This painting does look like it was done by a 6-7 y.o. (IMO... and also in the opinions of some others.)

Why are you so angry? Should people say it looks like it's been done by a 30 year old professional artist to make you happy?!

Looks like the OP is not coming back anyway.

6 year old maybe

I would say 10 year old, it is a lovely painting.

About 10 I’d say

I love kids art. I love it no matter what age they are.

It depends

1 If it was a straight copy from a book or if it's an 'original' based on photographs or other paintings they have seen.

2 The post could even be a 'joke' and it's done by a famous, adult artist. (eg Lowry did his matchstick men and someone might have said they were drawn by a 10 year old!)

If it is genuinely a child and they have not copied a picture or photo, I'd say anywhere from 9-11.

Hard to tell because some styles of art done by adults can look like a child did it (in my opinion).
My son likes drawing, so I'd say the age of the child for the above picture is around 6.
My son is 11 and this is his drawing of our pet.

this is beautiful!

Between 9-12

12
It's brilliant

Does this look like a child that has artistic potential

Not enough info from you OP.

@amiaweirdoo Art is not just about being able to copy another picture or painting and do it neatly.

Art is about choosing the subject for the painting and being original.

For example, I think this drawing has been done by someone who has copied an existing painting. I don't think a child would notice the eye shadow (the little black lines under the eyes.)

Wow that hamster is seriously impressive

9/10 …still better than anything I could draw/paint

I like it but then again I love quirky art but what I’d love more is for the op to come back and tell us, I hate these long drawn out threads, they seem pointless.
Sunisshiningweatherissweet1 that’s lovely, your son has talent.

Why do posters change their usernames, post things like this and bugger off?

7?

My son's class all painted Queen Victoria in Year 1, so I guess he was 7 at the time. This is a good piece of art.

Absolutely.

I think an adult drew the picture.
