S wanted me to make a stuffed animal. I told him I didn’t have time to make a stuffed animal at the moment and suggested another time to work on the project. He countered that he could make the stuffed animal. After a moment’s hesitation, I agreed. He designed the creature, I adapted into a pattern and cut it out for him and then I taught him the rudiments of hand sewing. You can see the finished product, decorated, of course, with markers.

Another work of art by S. Notice the bold use of color– he’s really into markers right now. I can’t remember the exact story behind this piece, but I believe it has to do with superheroes battling a dragon.
