It came to me yesterday.
The late afternoon in Montauk found a wide wooden deck with a sprightly toddler upon it, and as the warm evening unfurled into night, I frolicked about with my very own nephew Eli, at the precious age of 19 months. It occurred to me then that the sweetest thing about being an artist for a living is the occasional opportunity to train your lens (paintbrush, words, whatever) on your very own loved ones. Thanks E, for just being your adorable self! <3

There are some pics where his blue blue eyes and little mouth remind me of Darian when he was a tiny. So sweet.

I love his curly hair. A sweet boy with a serious side. I see both of his parents in his tender little face.
