26. that's not an explanation
that's a pseudo-religious hyper-sentimental form letter. And I really don't find anything interesting about an articulate ten year old, child stars always look precocious- she's been groomed for public consumption.

yes, there's some technical skill here, but she doesn't say anything (one of the points of painting is to replace words, the painting should tell you everything you need to know about the meaning of the work, having to explain it means the painter failed to do that)

yes, technical skill, but no artistic temperment. nothing is being created beyond formulaic propaganda. She needs about ten more years in the oven to mature and let herself catch up to her physical skill.
