What's wrong with her selling her paintings (or trading them, or giving them away for that matter) to earn a living if she can do something good with it? They may not all appeal to my taste, but the girl's got talent. Artists get  a bad rap. Creativity is from the Creator, is how I feel. We are the only living beings that make art.

When I watched the videos a couple of years back what struck me with this kid, (if she is the painter, (we never see her actually painting but only dabbling)   is that she "gets it". Painters, photographers and the like get it when their product represents what they want it to be and not what is considered normal or fitting a critics standards. The finished work should represent who she is and please only herself..
