G. doesn't think she draws well but what she really means is that she has trouble illustrating to makes her drawings appear the way that she thinks they should.

She is however a creative kid in working out how she wants to make things look 'right.'

Take for instance chalk drawing on Grandpa's driveway.

She collected different shaped leaves and outlined them with chalk then colored them and was pleased with herself and the results.

I thought it was a good idea and wanted to share it in case any other parents were faced with a frustrated driveway artist.
