"The paintings have a unique vivid look, and also feel very magical and otherworldly. The colors are marvelous, there are rocks glowing in the setting sun, water illuminated with light, magic sunsets saturating the world with color, stars twinkling in a deep blue sky, beautiful birds, and a rainbow of course." How could you deny any age this? Not all beauty comes with out context, I think it is essential for children to be exposed to all aspects of beauty - horrorfying or not. And as a Kindergarten teacher and parent, I know it is my role to especially not create a shallow, protected world for my children. Ugly Goblins, Beautiful Horror, that all exists in reality, let them decide what is 'too scary' for them. They are capable of a lot more than you allow.
