Is this 12 year old girl not an amazing painter?/Artist?

Let's leave religion out of this because it's an important subject but causes too much controversy amongst people...I just would like you to look at the paintings as works of art and would you not agree that for a 12 year old and a self taught painter of of wonderful pictures, this girl has a lot of potential...if thoughts of heaven inspire her, I see it as an added bonus, but I am impressed that she is able to paint pictures like that and started at such a young age..I would never ever be able to have the talent to create such wonderful artwork...I find it inspirational...what do you think...? I admire people who have amazing talents...creative talents, writing, music, dance, painting.... We need beautiful music to raise us up and we need music to see that dance is an art and dancers are athletes because dancing requires a lot of stamina and it is not a feminine talent...Male dancers can be very great as well and writers give us the ability to either learn new things or to delve into a world of fiction that allows us to make the characters in a book become alive and we get an impression of them and they become real people for us if we read a book like with passion...and great paintings are a joy for the eyes to see...I take pleasure in just looking at the paintings..I leave the creator out of this...if God inspires her to paint, that's wonderful but I just want to ask if you think if this girl has not got a talent at creating beautiful in depth paintings that are so skillful that one would not believe they are painted by a 12 year old...?

    I don't want to detract from the skill/talent of this girl but there are youngsters that are quit good to amazing at many things adults take for granted, we even have a name for it, prodigy. You would be surprised how far one can get if they practice something for 6 years and children don't have full time jobs and families etc. to distract them. Many of the great artist started at very young ages as that is how the whole apprentice game worked for thousands of years. She would probably not be so remarkable when compared to the youthful works of Durer, Da Vinci, even Picasso was a realistic artist in youth, his father taught him...as his father was a pro. art instructor. His paintings at 13-15 were quite the same level as this child here depicted.

    Having said that, more power to her, I envy her ability to the extent I envy any skilled artist ability and so I guess that is saying something. Though if its about comparison etc. then she is not as "wonderful" as Albrecht Durer at same age cause he had his own unique and identifiable style even then and this girl is using salon technique which produces excellent work on whole but doesn't push boundaries as such. All said, those who know a bit of art history do know of many cases of the child prodigy it is only those who don't have an appreciation or experience with art that think this is so uncommon or magical. Its out there and all around us one just needs to look, to see. Never hurts to give appreciation though. Children as whole should be commended for more then when they sing and dance.

    Thanks for sharing the vid though was good to watch. She is scary skilled/talented.

    One of the most important aspects of singing well involves correct breathing. Now you would think that we would already do this correctly. Try a site like https://tr.im/g6bfM which has the best vocal exercises

    After all if we couldn't breathe we wouldn't be alive! But in reality many people have bad breathing habits caused by a variety of things including poor posture and our often frantic lifestyles. Learning how to control your breathing is one of the keys to improving your voice.

    Singing requires that you are able to take in enough air quickly before you are about to sing a line and then let this air out in a regular and controlled way whilst singing the notes. The mistake many novice singers do is to take a quick shallow gasp of air into the top of the lungs. This results in there being insufficient air, to get you through the line you are singing, and you will end up dropping notes. I'm sure you can relate to this experience and can remember times when you have had to quickly take in more air half way through the line or note you are singing.

    her drawings aren very good but then wow, seriously shes good. i didnt have sound on so didnt hear what they were saying but my god she is very good. i just hope if she does art as a career she doesn get told to do more abstract things because ive seen it before where someones that good, well i can think of one person i know who is near that good but at still life and animals, she used to be amazing at faces but got told to loosen up her style n now she regrets it because she cant get as good a finish as before. but still wow yes she is inspirational
