Andrew’s Shark boy and Lava Girl Painting

Andrew painted this when he was three years old in pre-school. When I first saw it I was immediately taken back. I wondered if the colors he used had something to do with his favorite movie Shark Boy and Lava Girl. I would soon find out that I was right.

When I asked him why he chose these specific colors he said that the blue stood for Shark Boy Dad and the pink for Lava Girl and the orange for the fire that Lava Girl used. When we played around and re-enacted the film I would be Shark Boy dad and Rachel would be Lava Girl. Andrew, of course, was Shark Boy. It was so cool to see it all reflected in his art.
