An Ordinary Swell


is a line from some French poem I stumbled upon when trying to name this paper lithograph, colored with gouache.

I thought it might be nice to have some juicy color after my ugly grey litho plates from yesterday.

I also think it's fitting since I heard a heart warming love story today: my little 3 year old nephew is in love with his teacher's sister, who helps out at his preschool. All afternoon he kept telling my sis how much he missed her and wanted to go play at her house. Finally he allowed himself to be distracted by a TV show.

Oh Caden, I know how you feel. I have a big heart that is easily distracted too. How bittersweet.
