Amos and I are participating in the 2009 Kid Art Auction, the brainchild of Greeblemonkey and Fruitlady. This year's proceeds will benefit Nature Conservancy.
I intended to add these sooner than today, but as you may be aware, I've had tremendous computer issues as of late. Now that those days are over, I can get back to my 'ritin', 'rithmetic, and ruminatin'.
About a month or so ago, I bought some nontoxic finger paints for Amos. I fully intended for his first creations to be donated to Kid Art Auction. Phil and I are more writers than painters, so we had no idea what would spill from Amos' fingers.
He didn't disappoint.
We've donated three of his paintings, shown below in the slideshow. One looks like a thunderbird, another seems like a fanciful dancer, and the third looks like a tree. I like them all. Perhaps they are more Rorschach ink blots than what I see, but to each his own, eh?
Please go to the Flickr group for Kid Art Auction and bid on Amos' creations (listed under imaginary binky). Auction ends at 8pm MST April 30th, 2009. Bids start at $5, and all you have to do is leave your bid in a comment on the particular photo in the Kid Art Auction Flickr group.
Just think. You could soon be holding your very own Amos Porter painting. Happy bidding, and thanks for participating!

Maybe Amos will be a popular artist so he can support his starving parents. We need to teach him to be a painter of light.
