The kids meet an artist

A few years ago was the the first time we bought more than one piece of ‘art’ at one time that had a unifying theme. It was a group of zenpencil prints and the idea was to let the kids pick what they wanted and the left overs would be for me to hang in the general areas.

We’ve bought books and more prints since and the older kids like to check in on the website for the latest editions. But today we got to meet Gavin in person! I wasn’t going to make the kids wait in line to meet him partially because I don’t like crowds, lines, or waiting. But luckily Mariel forced me to be less stupid and we waited. The kids were all /very/ happy and although I try not to entertain the idolization or imposition that seems to go along with signings… I just enjoyed the hell out of it. And we got a beautiful print to boot!  Before we were even out of the store the kids were all thanking me in a way that makes you realize that your kids never really thank you for anything, with genuine enthusiasm, unless they REALLY mean it.
