I paint with watercolors, mostly animals and birthday cards. I wrote and illustrated my first book when I was five, and I’ve made two very big things out of Rubik’s cubes — an astronaut, and a wolf that now lives at my school.</p> <p>This site is where I keep the things I make. New paintings go up whenever they dry.</p> <p>If you’d like one of my paintings, ask my dad — the shop is coming.</p>
