On good days I get texts with ‘doodles’. These doodles come from a young man (my son) who is a dynamo with a pencil, albeit unbeknownst to himself. It doesn’t matter what kind of paper or the drawing implement, and the subject matter is completely out of his head, sometimes light and happy, sometimes a bit disturbing. Either way, I love to get these texts, they just make me happy.

Several months ago I printed a few of these images with the intention of adding color, just because he won’t and it would be fun!

Finally I have the time to work on this…here is our first collaboration!
