Becoming Van Gogh in Denver

We had a fun and freezing time in Colorado this weekend! The Denver Art Museum showcased Dylan’s favorite artist from October until January, so of course we had to go. He says he feels inspired and ready to begin a masterpiece that will amaze everyone. Dyl’s favorite pieces included Grass and Butterflies and Mother Roulin with Her Baby.

The DAM has an area for young painters to experiment with color, ask a professional artist questions and read art books. Dylan sat down with paper, brushes, and the primary colors immediately. Much like Van Gogh, Dyl has an uncanny ability to mix colors that are pleasing to the eye.

A Great Cause

Recently Dyl’s Obama mural was auctioned off to a crowd with some deep pockets. When asked what he was going to do with the money he simply stated, “I am giving it to my school because they need it.” That night Dyl raised $500 for DLD Sycamore School. With the sale of T-shirts, mugs and tote bags we raised another $360 and still counting (since orders keeps coming in!).

Thank you all for supporting this amazing kid with a very generous heart!
