3yr-old Paxton painted my car today

[Murrmurr]

and I love it! The camera didn't quite capture how bright the colors are.







I'll never have trouble spotting my van in a parking lot again!

Beautiful. A young Michelangelo.

Awww beautiful memories to share with him when he's older. Painted with love.

Not many parents would let a child do that. You may have a budding artist there.

 

[Paco Dennis]

LOVE IT!!!

 

[Maryatrics]

This is so beautiful. I love it.

Actually .... for a three year old .... that's not bad. I've seen 'artist' that were worse.

Looking at it again, I think I would leave this artwork as it is. People spend a lot of money every year to have artistic additions to their cars. It would surely be a conversation starter. I especially like the art-form on the hood of the car.

@Murrmurr I applaud your attitude and appreciation You surely stand out in a crowd of car owners. I can't say as they'd react with love of the child over love of their material possession in a moment of shock....unless they knew it was washable paint.

In addition to what this original post of yours, and this thread,
indicates about you, @Murrmurr and about Paxton;
the great many members who are enjoying it, also says something about all of us!

I'm going to see about finding a clear-coat or sealer that will preserve it and not lift it.

(taking suggestions! it's acrylic and acrylic latex.)

I think it's beautiful too. I keep peeking out at the parking area to admire it. Looks better than anything out there.

Up in the corner, in felt pen, I wrote "Artwork by PAX, 3yrs-old"

It definitely made the car a classic.

 

[Della]

I love it so much! My favorite thing is how carefully he went around the door handles.

 

[JimBob1952]

I like it...on your car. Don't let Paxton near my new car, please.

Yeah, that part looks really cool.

I tried to brighten up the photos for you, Murrmurr.

Yeah, it got really overcast that day.

Thanks!

My suggestion is to do a tiny bit of paint someplace on it, and test whatever you might use.

And another suggestion, is to choose a spot on the car, and have Paxton paint his name on it someplace, to sign his work, in some form or manner.
And perhaps you could write something, by his "signature mark"
to indicate it was painted by him, with his age, and/or, the date he did it.

OH goodness!
I had not read the rest of the posts, yet, when I skipped down the page, to post my suggestions!

I think Paxton is cuteness overload, but please also do not let him near my new car!

My neighbor drives a 1998 Chevy mini-truck. He asked me if I'd let Paxton paint one of his door panels.

Hmmm....what to charge? (just kidding)

Well Paxton certainly displays a good eye for colour and Picasso brush strokes, therefore you should charge your neighbor a grand fee !!
