Whenever my 7 year old daughter who has Down syndrome draws a person, she signs that it's "Dad." I've saved them and put them on a canvas for Father's Day. Even though she can't speak the words, she's still able to tell her dad how much she loves him.

Why make a terrible looking picture and then ask people to read about it?

No one is asking you to read about it. The audience is people who know anything about painting, and you don't. If you want to be the audience, do some research.
