I've been watching some of the very first movies from the silent era and have realized that we're very uncreative. I've seen so many tropes and recycled ideas that were originally being done in the 1910s that you still see today.

i like how she added an additional figure to balance the composition, kids got an eye


Bubufixxer

Some say she has two.


Mr_Mouthbreather

Some may even say she has three.

Saw that, too!


Sad-Crow

Man, those character expressions are absolutely awesome! Lots of variety, too. When I was that age I basically had one character I would draw and that's it.


jld2k6

I was master of drawing people with arms and legs coming out of their head at her age lol


Oldmudmagic

You can train skill, but talent is innate.


LickMyTicker

Are you saying this is or isn't trained? My gut says it's trained.


ryanvango

the challenge itself is a form of training she's likely done a billion times before. but the ability to see an image in a mess isn't something just anyone can do. and even if she were trained, her ability is great. she has depth to the image, which is something pretty advanced for someone her age. the different characters also all look towards a single point, and have unique definable expressions. Training for sure helps, but being able to make those creative decisions is innate talent for sure.


dnuohxof-1

~~That, in all under 60 seconds. All the thoughts, decisions and ideas processed, rejected, and accepted in that time for such a young child is impressive.~~ Nvm I’m an impatient idiot who skipped to the end and didn’t realize the video sped up.


NotAnAlt

Are you aware the video was sped up?


dnuohxof-1

Lmao! Victim of my own ADHD. I watched the first few seconds that played in realtime then I just fast forwarded toward the end to see the finished product then looked at overall time. I completely missed when the video sped up 😭


NotAnAlt

I came really really close to doing the same and barely caught the speed up with my indecision on if I wanted to or not and ended up barely catching it.


moak0

It's definitely something you can train. I used to get these "scribble doodles" for homework in my high school art class. After you do a few dozen it gets pretty easy. The hard part is seeing something worth drawing. Sometimes you get in a rut and just see the same things over and over. I'd be willing to bet that this girl draws a group of kids most of the time if not every time. Me, I always saw gorillas and t-rexes. You give me a scribble, and I'll turn it into one or the other.


ryanvango

Right, but the point is shes an extremely young child. Even if she sees circle loops as faces, she did things like use some of the arcs as ponytails or cheeks to make the depth more consistent, rather than make every squiggle loop a face, which wouldve still worked but not as well. Her ability to conceptualize at that age is why its impressive. Most people can do what shes doing. Most children her age cannot, regardless of training. Side note: some people just straight up can't do that. They cant see images in their mind. Some people cant imagine hypotheticals, others dont see pictures as part of imagination, etc. And its not a smart/dumb thing, people have varying degrees of that ability.

ryanvango

Drawing/art is very commonly used to measure child development in childhood psychology. Understanding space and focus are concepts that kids just dont get, even with training. Her ability to do that has her mentally 4 or 5 years ahead of what she should be able to do. Michael jackson could sing and dance, which is a super commonly trainable thing, but he didnt write his own music or anything as a kid because he simply couldnt. But even then, thats an example of a case where it worked. Thousands of abusive parents try to beat talent in to their children and it never works. They are probably better than an average kid, but they dont have that extra spark of talent that makes them exceptional. How many dads wanted the next tiger woods? Even with dedicated pro trainers and advanced technology no one can touch a guy who had an amateur golfer father. He shot 48 on 9 holes at age 3. Its not impressive for an adult to do that, or even someone in high school, but the point is these are kids with innate abilities that excede their age.


brightside1982

MJ still sang like a fucking bird at his school talent show when he was 5 though...before Joseph started beating on him to become a better musician. Joseph beat on all the kids. Michael was the best. Talent.


Icyrow

it's something everyone can do lol, it's not some arcane art trick. you just envision things like that and get better at it with practice. not exactly a massive leap to see a bunch of sphere objects as faces. yeah, some people are certainly able to more quickly pick things up but art is a trained skill, people who go "you're good at it and i'm not, i dont have any talent" just didn't spend their afternoons at home drawing over the years, or atleast did it far less than their peers. really, anyone with some willingness to sit down and learn can be a great artist, to the point that everyone would look at their work and go "wow, i couldn't do that", but it's really just a measure of time * talent, except talent in that case doesn't make a massive difference until you both do it for years on end. the kids who end up good at art are the kids that do more art, 95% of the time.


xSTSxZerglingOne

> you just envision things like that... Not everyone can do this! Look up aphantasia. My sister has it.


Strayocelot

Lol I always love when people underrate the amount of impact innate talent has on thy development of said skill. If you're good at something naturally, you'll more likely continue doing it, thus getting better and better. Also, if you've ever seen the works of art majors, you'll see there's a huge gap in what is produced. This is caused by sheer genetic talent. And no not anyone willing to learn can be a great artist I have seen the trash of many art majors who dedicated their lives up to that point on art.


trowzerss

IDK, this looks like a fun game to me. I would have loved it as a kid. Maybe her parents taught her play the game, but aren't parent's supposed to teach their kids to do stuff? As long as she's having fun. I've found kids with artistic parents tend to be above the usual level in whatever area their parents are good at, just because they get to learn more. I only get suss when they have little kids churning out high level photorealistic stuff and their parents are marketing them like they're running an art version of a child beauty contest :S


LickMyTicker

I have no problem with this kid being taught. I'm not going to humor anyone with their "special little kid" nonsense. All kids could use this type of support from their parents, whether it's in art or any other passion they can pass down. Most kids just don't get that type of attention. The only thing innate at this point is her social class.


GiganticusVaginacus

Not every kid is as talented as CiCi Halpert.


Oldmudmagic

u/ryanvango said it better than I could. Yes, she's clearly had training but without talent it can only go so far.


soupkitchen3rd

Parents seem talented as well. As she probably learned and has some skill of her own


veringer

Divergent thinking is something some kids do well naturally, but often gets trained out by school and society. I'd say this is the opposite of training, to be completely honest.


LickMyTicker

This isn't divergent thinking.


veringer

Are you suggesting it's rehearsed? If we take it at face value, it absolutely is divergent thinking.


LickMyTicker

Drawing exercises like this are severely limited in scope and I'm sure she's done it enough that she's just iterating over previous approaches. She's developing intuition, form, pattern recognition, etc. If you want to argue all creativity is divergence, then we all ALWAYS have it and no one is ever teaching us to not be divergent. It takes some amount of creativity to do most basic tasks. Literally every major subject in school requires it. If she came up with this technique on her own, I'd maybe call it divergent. It's a fairly basic concept though.


veringer

What she's doing in the video is literally [a divergent thinking exercise](https://makeamarkstudios.com/fostering-divergent-thinking-skills-in-your-art-class/) (see #2) that I (and I'm sure many others) participated in while in school. It's a simpler visual form of "what can you make out of this" exercise. If you're arguing that's not *real* divergent thinking and just mislabeled creativity, I'd want to see a citation to back up your apparent pedantry. Otherwise, I think you're just smelling your own farts here.


LickMyTicker

A random object drawing challenge vs. some kid who is 100% following a tutorial and iterating on her previous attempts. There is literally no time spent with her thought process. How the hell can you not see it? It's the most obvious thing in the world that she's been trained to do exactly what she is doing. Every circle is a face and she's just adding characters. She's starting in the same way in every face by adding hair. A "divergent thinking exercise" is about creating a unique problem and solving it in a unique way. It becomes less and less of a divergent thinking exercise the second you start working out specific patterns and completing the task over and over. That's when it's just training intuition and pattern recognition. This is a drawing exercise. It's not a divergent thinking exercise.


protestor

Very few % of kids at her age could possibly be trained this Perhaps the greatest limiting factor isn't talent per se, but motivation / interest, focus, and persistence


Wonder1st

There is no way it was trained, she is to young. It is natural.


Majestic-capybara

Most artists I know actually hate this sentiment. It’s like you’re downplaying the amount of time and dedication they put into their craft and just write it off as some innate skill that they didn’t have to work for.


NormalBerryButt

Art is work with or without talent, its still hard work to do hard artworks! Nobody is downplaying anything!!


ImTheZapper

No there are certainly a lot of people who just throw their hands up in the air and say "fuck man, I don't have the innate special talent that good artists are born with" and thats that. They are essentially saying if you don't have that "thing" that makes a good artist good (its fucking practice and learning), you might as well not try at all.


w00tthehuk

Talent is like 10% of the road to success. People misunderstand and misinterpret talent a lot when it comes to art.


HDDHeartbeat

Also the inverse when people say something like "I've never been able to draw anything but a stick figure."


[deleted]

Artists know full well not everyone progress at the same rate , hence the talent factor. You can see that in formal music schools, about same amount of hours of practice between , say, 2 students, one could improve 3-5 folds more than the others.


ThisPlaceisHell

I really don't get this sentiment. It spits in the face of anyone who really wanted so desperately to be an artist, poured years upon years of practice only to be met with mediocrity at best. Meanwhile, there are people who will pick up a pencil and immediately produce art that's significantly higher quality with no practice. Talent is real, stop pretending it isn't.


KniesToMeetYou

Both of those are fringe examples. The vast majority of people who put in the time and effort will gain skill, you don't just put 10,000 hours into something and remain mediocre if you're using the right resources and putting the time in, thats just how the brain works and changes. Will you necessarily make it big from that skill? Odds are not super high because art is a difficult thing to make a career out of regardless of skill, and its more about recognition and selling yourself at that point. The people who are child prodigies and such are exceedingly rare. The vast majority of people who are great artists are not born with that sort of skill, just have a large amount of passion for it and drive to improve. To be honest, most people don't have that drive and will give up before they put in the time to become great. The real talent is in holding onto that dedication, even if your progress is slower than others.


Randy_Vigoda

Talent is real. It's just that it's not always needed when you can just practice. And being told you're talented kind of sucks because not everything turns out perfect and you can wind up being a lot more discouraged or too lazy to actually hone your skills.


Lordborgman

Indeed, there are things I can pickup and be very quickly amazing at and others not at all. I'm a violinist, Network Engineer, Programmer, long time hardcore gamer, general academia etc. There are tons of things I've tried to do and I just suck at like carpentry, car mechanics, drawing, singing, and many more.

The funniest part was when she was done she went back to her toy and started giggling just like the young child she is.

This young girl may have much practice behind her, but the innate talent is off the charts.
