Your grandson is very artistic indeed. Although that first painting kinda scares me....I am drawn to that abstract with the blues, greens and greys. What a wonderful guy to be able to make his own mark in the world! Guess he comes by it honestly!! I never thought much about left-handedness. I will now!
