This child art prodigy wows New York_资讯
a four-year-old girl is wowing the new york art world with paintings that are drawing comparisons with jackson pollock and wassily kandinsky.
marla olmstead, from binghampton, in new york state, has been painting since just before she was two years old.
using brushes, spatulas , her fingers and even ketchup bottles, she is creating canvases of six by six foot.
the prodigy has already sold about 25 paintings, raising $40,000 and a new exhibition opens this week.
"her paintings have vibrant colours. they’re very expressive in the way the paint is applied, brush, spatula, her fingers. some are kandinskyesque and some are pollockesque.
mr brunelli’s assessment of marla’s prospects as an adult artist are cautious.
"you never can tell. i’ve seen her progressing over the past year. the four she just did, each one gets better."

小小神童震惊纽约画坛 四岁女孩与绘画大师比肩
一个四岁的小女孩凭借自己的油画作品震惊了整个纽约艺术界，人们把她的画和杰克逊·波洛克和瓦西里·康定斯基的作品相提并论。
来自纽约州宾厄姆顿的玛勒·奥姆斯戴德还不到两岁就开始画画。
她用画笔、调色刀、手指、甚至是装蕃茄酱的瓶子在6英尺见方的画布上做画。
这个小神童已经卖出了大约25幅画，共计4万美元。本周她又要举行一场作品展。
“她的画色彩明快。她用画笔、调色刀和手指着色的风格使这些画非常富有表现力。一些画像康定斯基的作品，还有一些像波洛克。” 馆经理安东尼·布鲁内利说。
布鲁内利对玛勒将来是否会成为一名画家持保守态度。
“你永远没法预见。在过去的一年里我看着她成长。她最近画的四幅画，一幅比一幅好。”
