Erin's 9th Grade Artwork

I remember when Erin was in kindergarten, we had a neighbor that was an artist. She also had a son in Erin's class. Carrie studied each students' artwork during open house and then told me that Erin was the only one in the class that had talent. I thought that was funny since Erin was only 5. But if it's true, then I guess she must get it from Mario because I only draw stick figures and connecting hearts when I doodle. I really want to know how she got that bridge to look so three dimensional in the second picture. I know nothing about art, can you tell?!

Erin won't admit she's a good artist and she'd be upset to know I put these on my blog. So Shhhh!
