In fact, internet users went into a frenzy back in 2021 when Kim shared a remarkable oil painting that North, then 7, had done.
Many people suspected that North hadn’t actually painted the Bob Ross–style piece because of how detailed it was, and even accused Kim of lying about the entire thing.

“Recently North stayed home and had COVID, so this is the drawing she did in her room,” Kim explained. “Maybe that was just her emo mood.”
