A primitive black pencil drawing of three stick figures, a father and mother holding hands with their smaller child between them.

A very primitive black pencil drawing on a white sheet of paper made by a 2-year-old child showing only three stick figures: a dad with short hair, a daughter with very long hair, and a mom with very long hair. The daughter is about one-third the height of the parents and stands between them while each parent holds one of her hands. The mom’s hair and the daughter’s hair are each drawn with exactly nine long strokes. All lines are thick pencil lines that look slow, wobbly, and broken where the child stopped and continued drawing, not straight or controlled. The heads are very uneven circles, the bodies are simple stick lines, and the drawing is sparse with lots of empty white space. There are no clothes, no dresses, no shading, no ground line, and no extra objects, giving it a loose, messy toddler scribble style. Mehr sehen
