A birthday gift for my kid. No worries. He probably has no idea this site exists.
Among his particular traits is that he appreciates art in a way that most people his age don’t. He spends his pocket money on little bits of art he encounters in his world… as gifts for friends or kept as treasures of his own to curate. Even though I think he’s only mostly-tolerating me when I’m discussing my own art with him (or around him), I like to think he gets his appreciation for art from his mother and me.
His other parents are pretty artless.
No judgement, just stating facts.
I also like to think he secretly thinks I’m a pretty good artist.
I think we all want our kids to be proud of us.
We should, anyway.
