I will say this warms my heart to little Sterling…a bit. I’m impressed not only with his skill, but it doesn’t have an ounce of evil in it. I thought that mischievous grin would be more sinister.
I am surprised Mom, who is usually so cool to Wallace’s eccentricities , should freak over what is REALLY great talent shown by Sterling…bit of a bias showing Mom!!
Reminds me of a Peanuts scene: when Lucy grudgingly lets Linus use a few of her crayons (black, gray, and white), he channels Michelangelo. (I may be conflating old memories of two separate strips.)

I’m kind of wondering how Sterling pulled of the El Castillo look with colored pencils!

Big Betty comes to Spud’s defense. But even she wouldn’t stand a chance.

Hmmm…..a cave in France?

That last panel is so well-done! No doubt they’ll repeatedly have that reaction to the hilariously disturbing Sterling for decades to come :-D

Spud has the only reasonable reaction.

Poor Wallace. Although he will have 23 kids handing him a pencil to use in the next panel.

Got a good chuckle from Spud’s response in the last panel.

Neanderthal DNA. That explains a lot.

Suspicions confirmed. Sterling’s preponderance of caveman DNA is proved.

Still waiting to see if Spud’s pencil will fit the pencil sharpener.

I wonder what he used to reach the upper part of the wall!

“Sterling.” To be said in the same tone Seinfeld says “Newman.”

Mom’s first response, to shout. Her second? To get the camera.
