This drawing is one of the first things I ever made for J. I wanted to so much to create for him, from the moment he was born. and since he wasn’t exactly eating solid food yet(!) - my usual mode of creating - I had to find other forms of expression.

Pen and ink drawing (although I think I may have used a caligraphy brush here) was a great outlet for me, and a much cheaper alternative to the black and white flashcards recommended for newborns.

I found it again the other day as I sorted out my back room, and I think I might frame it and hang it here, in the entry way.



...right outside his room.
