The Top 14 Signs Your Kid Isn’t
Going to Be an Artistic Genius

  1. He spends weeks with nude models and hasn’t finished a single painting.

  2. Eats paste. And he’s 25 years old.

  3. His masterpiece: shoved a popsicle stick up the dog’s butt to make a Poodle Pop.

  4. Blue face shows he still hasn’t figured out the spray-can nozzle.

  5. Not enough paintings of "happy little trees" because he spends all his time perfecting his Bob Ross white-guy ‘fro.

  6. She Christo-wraps the bathroom just trying to wipe.

  7. Sure, it’s a near-perfect replica of Rodin’s "The Thinker," but he built it in the cat’s litter box.

  8. Her last epic poem got her placed on the no-fly-list by the FBI.

  9. The sight of his LEGO art makes you wish you had stepped on them in your bare feet instead.

  10. Her lack of imagination is evident: All her drawings on the refrigerator are drawings *of* the refrigerator.

  11. Wants to be the "New Liberace" — but "without all that macho stuff.."

  12. Cut off his ear *before* learning to paint.

  13. He’s another Jackson Pollock, but only while standing at the toilet.
And the Number 1 Sign Your Kid Isn’t Going to Be an Artistic Genius…

  1. Like Beyonce, he performed the "Star Spangled Banner" in front of millions. Unlike Beyonce, he did so on YouTube with a pan flute stuck in his butt.
