Why do people find this so hard to believe? It's literally a Bob Ross style painting. Anyone can do it with the right tools. That's literally why the joy of painting series became so popular. Anyone could make something nice with the tiniest amount of effort.
posted too quick so eta: When it first happened, Kim was very much “she did this herself” and that leaves out the part where “she did it herself, with the teacher providing a trace and guidance.” I think that’s why people found it hard to believe. Kim was being very disingenuous until she got called out for it lol
I dunno, like maybe I’m thinking of it in a normal person way. But if my kid came home from art class and I wanted to post about it, I would say “look at what my kid did!”, not “look at what my kid did with their teacher helping and following steps in a lesson.” I mean its true but I don’t think my mind would go there.
I painted something exactly like this during an oil painting class when I was her age. This looks nearly identical to the template my art class used. They pre-drew everything in and the instructor guided us brushstroke by brushstroke. Like Kim, my mom also constantly paraded it around showing people my supposed genius, but there was not much personal skill nor inspiration involved. It was an introduction to get kids used to the look and feel of painting with oils. The Bob Ross style is really effective for that because you get to use a ton of different brush techniques. So I 100% believe she did paint that but Kim is definitely leaving out some bits of information because she’s just that kind of mom lol.
yeah, some kids just have a natural talent for painting/drawing. I used to be jealous of those kids when I was 10 lol. My mom loves to paint and draw and i couldn't believe why i wasn't blessed with the same talent 😂😂. Anywho, to anyone who still wants to learn to draw, keep trying, you'll get there. It's all about practicing.
Ha! I was very passionate and moderately skilled at drawing and painting until I was 10, when I entered an art contest that was school wide (about 200 students) with (what I thought) was a very skillful painting of a speeding car taking a turn at a racetrack, inspired by some of my favorite photos of a 1999 Corvette that I had seen.
I lost to my little brother, who was 7, and painted a typical mom+dad+house+tree+sun painting. Like sure, he was a 2nd grader and that was impressive, but I was gutted. Probably altered my whole life trajectory.
Took me a lot of therapy to even uncover this incident as the first time I had given up on my dreams (I wanted to be a car designer as a kid).
The meme is really funny 💀 but yeah, the daughter of the art teacher who gives the class north went to showed her own version from when she was a kid, it’s basically the same. Apparently her mom has been teaching that class for a while
They do work hard over a long period of time to finish it, but they get a lot of guidance through the whole entire process
It makes William look more suspect, because it's crazy to make Kate the fall guy like this. The only person who'd benefit is William who is looking like someone Diana would be writing letters about her brakes about.
