(Adam's instructions break with convention by starting in the lower left corner.)
Here are a couple of drawings he did yesterday:

A few weeks ago we introduced Adam to this video and it has proven to be quite an inspiration. He asked for (and got) a skateboard for his birthday, he talks about skateboarding all the time and, during a trip to see the lights at Temple Square last week, he pretended to skateboard on, and jump off, all the planter boxes and fountain borders.

This is part of a larger work, a collection of drawings of things he's going to get for his family and friends for Christmas. In case you can't tell, this is "Children who share and no noisy children."

His illustration of no noisy children needs no caption. Marvelous.
My fav is the skateboarder - looking forward to next week when he tries it in real life. Then he'll have a cast to decorate with his drawings :)
I love these. A lot. I had no idea about Adam's new passion. I need to spend more time with you and your kids :)
The Asher in the Half Pipe title carries Biblical overtones.
The style is reminiscent of Cubism, which, according to Jacques Barzun, is about showing motion.
I remember starting to draw people and your grandma Grace pointing out that people have necks. :)
These are wonderful. Go Adam!
Be still my heart.
