My daughter is just at the age where she's coordinated enough to incorporate real things into her drawings (as opposed to scribbles that represent real things). Still, viewing these masterpieces is a very interpretive endeavor, which usually involves me saying something like: "wow, that's very...avant garde!"

Photographer Yeondoo Jung, however, has taken this interpretation to entirely new level -- by creating large-scale, highly elaborate photographs based on children's drawings.

Check out the artist's website to see a number of examples. I'm amazed both by how beautiful and how specific the drawings are -- the amount of detail used in replicating almost exactly what the child has drawn is remarkable.
