GRAYSON XAVIER

Kiddo numero uno is a rockstar little artist.  He is most known for his fancy re-creations of Batman, Sonic the Hedgehog and Zelda characters.  His favorite media is pencil and marker.  However, he does well with all of the challenges we throw at him including Perler beads and string art.  When he isn't in the art room looking for something to draw, he is talking endlessly about Zelda, running like Sonic, drawing video game characters over and over in Procreate on the iPad, banging on the drums, or building crazy new worlds in Minecraft.

 

MERA ZEE

Number three.  Master of destruction, creator of messes.  This kid is fierce, funny, smart and her hair grows perfectly into the “Rachel.”  She's got dance moves for days and can sing movie theme songs like she is in the studio herself.  Her favorite thing to do while traveling, is to stop all the people walking their dogs to tell them how cute their dog is. It’s adorable and she quickly makes friends everywhere she goes.

KINSEY QUINN

Outdoor kid. This kiddo loves being outside more than the dog. Riding her bike, scooter or skateboard, she is always on the go and ready for the next adventure. Kinsey loves to make too, but you will find her in the kitchen instead of the art room.  She is well known for her foam latte art and tasty banana muffins.  Her road specialty is synonym rolls; just like grammar used to make them. She dabbles in helping dad with projects and has taken an interest in toting around her caboodle and makeup.

 

KALI

Adventure dog. The best dog on planet Earth. No one loves to steal your spot on the couch as much as this dog. She loves coming along on road trips and has claimed the king bed in the rig as her own private space.
