Well done, Hector - a really good drawing and nicely painted. Not sure I could have done as well as you! Love Rana.

wow he looks like hes very good hope we can see more of him on pol . Chip of the old block comes to mind

What a great idea doing a drawing and very well done too!.

Thank you Dennis and Dorothy - I will pass your very encouraging and kind comments on to Hector. Dennis, Hector has loved drawing and art since he was a tiny boy and he used to amaze me by contour drawing when he was about 3 or 4 (something that I struggle with even now). The thing about kids is that they don't see the problems and aren't daunted by anything - they just get on with it - a lesson I think I should learn!

Top stuff - and for a 14 year old it's amazing (quite complex painting trainers).

A very accomplished drawing Hector, well done!

Such accomplished work from the young master. You inspired him Thea

This is lovely, Thea! Hector is obviously a very talented boy - the shapes are definitely all spot on, as are the washes. Super super work!

Thank you Joseph, Christine, Dennis and Seok for you kind comments. I will pass on them on to Hector who I know will be both flattered and delighted.

Wow, really good Hector, these trainers mean business!

Well done Hector!

This painting was done by Hector, my 14 year old grandson. It's his Dad's birthday today and the new trainers he was having as a birthday present hadn't arrived. Hector's Mum asked him to if he could do a quick drawing of the shoes so that she could show Hector's Dad what she had got him as his present so he obliged with this drawing. Done in watercolour pencils.

I am a watercolourist first and foremost as I love the qualities of the medium, its riskiness and unpredictability. I started painting about 8 years ago and it has now become an integral part of my life. Hopefully, I will continue to paint into my dotage as I am given to understand that you can…
