Kim K. and Ye's daughter is flaunting her artistic skills with a new Ice Spice portrait.

Kim Kardashian previously spoke about North West's artistic skills, and the mom-daughter duo is showing off the youngster's talents. Kim and North have regularly made appearances on social media, specifically TikTok, where they post silly videos for fans. In a recent upload, North revealed her portrait of Ice Spice from a photo she pulled from the internet.

Considering she's only nine years old, young North didn't do half bad with her sketch. Additionally, we can only imagine Ice Spice's response to having one of the most famous kids in the world casually drawing your image for their millions of followers. Regardless of what anyone else thinks, North was more than happy with the final product.

Back in February 2022, Kim showed off some of her daughter's other art, including her charcoal drawing that expressed North's "emo phase." There was also a snowcapped mountain and a colorful wolf. It was later revealed that North was studying with a private teacher—no surprises there.

"I love seeing, like, the personality and the moods and everything that she goes through and just feel like it’s really been an amazing hobby of hers,” Kim said at the time. When the public noted North's work mirrored others found online, a former student chimed in. It was noted that the teacher uses the same pictures to instruct all of her young students. Kardashian has opted to steer clear of critics and, instead, nurtured her daughter's aspirations.

Meanwhile, Kim and North's social media displays aren't always welcomed by Kanye West. We may not have heard much from Ye in recent weeks, but there was a time when he made it clear that he didn't want his daughter on TikTok. The complaint wasn't lost on Kim, but she and North have pushed forward, regardless. These days, it seems that Kanye has conceded to seeing his daughter online. We haven't heard much from him since his rumored wedding to Bianca Censori. Yet, it was speculated that West is laying low until he unveils his plans for the U.S. 2024 Presidential Election.
