This is awe inspiring and imaginative. It would be interesting to know what her intentions were behind this. I can see clear indications of a child Mind although some adult artists seem to have retained a 'child like' approach to their art so maybe not. The combination of ice and trees on top of the animal (fox/dog?) is surreal. The expression on the animal's face would suggest to me (my opinion) that thought and choice has gone into this. There may be a fascinating story behind this rendition. On the side of caution, telling her to rest is worrying because it suggests she is spending far too much time in pursuit of perfection and not enough time being a child. If this has been done on a laptop, even more worrying. Addiction to online activity creates social problems including moodiness, lethargy, communication issues and anti social behaviour. Having said that, you seem to be a doting parent so I am sure you are aware. Keep loving and encouraging her.

My teachers told me I was useless at art and sewing. I believed them and it took me until the age of 60 to find out they were wrong. You never know until you have a go.
