You’re damn right I’m okay with it.

I might even commission this artist.

If I had a kid and they did this I’d take them out to buy them more art supplies.

Heck i’d get enough for me too and join her!

Honestly if they’re not doing damage have at it. We’re painting this room before we move out anyway.

would also get some varnish and save that for all posterity.

now there’s a kid that’s going places. Not college, but places.
IndiBrony@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Art college, maybe
archonet@lemy.lol 4 months ago
ehhh, I was gonna say furry conventions or perhaps more optimistically a lucrative career in shitposty online comics, but sure lets shoot for the moon.
YaDownWitCPP@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Same thing.

You can spot the parents here.
They are expressing themselves, having fun, and off the iPad. They even put it where I don’t have to see it too often. I’ll call it a win.

Yep, this is how Michelangelo started, painting his bedroom walls. One day, it’s the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Well, that’s been done, but maybe the food court ceiling at the mall.

what’s a mall food court grandpa?

Not really, my parents would’ve crucified me for this lol

I think it’s a bit of a generational thing. The internet has given us access to a lot more reliable information. Far more parents have learnt the difference between what’s effective and what feels good. Yelling feels good, it doesn’t actually work very well. Rolling with it, followed by a calm discussion gets far better results. Achieving this mentality is another matter, but using it as a goal helps moderate your reaction.

Missing the pop-tart body, otherwise we could have had a wild Nyan Moose
IndiBrony@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I thought Nyan cat translated to cat cat?
*Looks up Japanese for moose
What we have here is a Mūsu Moose!
corvi@lemm.ee 4 months ago
Close. Nyan, or nya, is the equivalent of meow. So you need whatever sound a Japanese moose makes.
Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 4 months ago
I didn’t know this. Mūsu Moose sounds even better! Mūsu Moose it is!

Rented out house, also fucks up with repainting it which you do need to do after sometime
LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Eh, heavy primer will take care if most anything with a few coats. It’s only marginally more work
greedytacothief@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 months ago
Most kids paint is washable, so I imagine painting over it won’t be so bad.
eatsumbum@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I’m okay with it. Pretty great actually.
user224@lemmy.sdf.org 4 months ago
Eh. My opinion on this is “Your room, your walls.” Unless the kid decides to start drilling holes or otherwise destroying the wall, it’s fine. It can be painted over later on.
Or, it may be a good opportunity for washable paint.
moakley@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Yeah, I’d probably leave that up for a few years. I have trouble throwing away any of her artwork.
Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I’d stick it in a gallery, must be on the original medium though.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Yup. Go for it, kid. And the best part is you can drag out the rainbow farting moose any time a childhood story is needed to mildly embarrass and laugh with your kid.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 months ago
I say keep it. It’ll distract from the hole in the drywall.

this is the artwork of the century.

At least she got the colors in the right order!

Nice styles, lucky she’s good :D
AgentOrangesicle@lemmy.world 4 months ago
We had an art wall. You need an art wall.
Goretantath@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Fuck it, let it stand. Just tell her not to do it anywhere but her own room.

Isn’t 10 a little old to be coloring on walls? My kids stopped doing that by 6. Not trying to say I’m some kind of super dad, I’m far from perfect, but 10 seems a little old to still be coloring on walls.
QualifiedKitten@discuss.online 4 months ago
I was definitely still drawing/writing on my walls in high school, and I’m not even “artsy”.
confusedwiseman@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 months ago
I feel like I’d allow this in a kid’s room. It’s fully behind the door so I don’t have to look at it and it’s their space.
Ultimately, it’s less destructive to the house than the missing door stopper.
AstralPath@lemmy.ca 4 months ago
Yeah that’s what I was thinking too. At a certain age where they’re not just finger painting randomness anymore, why not let a kid run wild with their room. It’s not the end of the world if you need to re-paint the walls if you need to move.
Madison420@lemmy.world 4 months ago
It’s a hollow core door, it’s mostly paper anyway.

I know, door. Me too…
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 4 months ago
I’d allow or even encourage something like this but ideally only on the wall and not covering the door plus not with crayons or marker since those can be a pain to paint over. But other than that I agree, why not? It’s a way for them to incorporate their own design ideas into their living space.
