Life imitating art


Have I mentioned that Samson loves to draw? With crayons, pens, pencils, ketchup. He's a regular Basquiat when it comes to using what's at hand. And he's got no preference for medium: paper, table, floor, wall, his pants. It's all a canvas for young Samson.

I, however, am not a gifted artist. In fact, one of the only things I can draw is a teepee. Which, when you get right down to it, is really just a triangle.

Anyway, I've been sketching these for Samson for as long as he's shown any interest in drawing.

So you can imagine his excitement when we got to the farm and there was a giant corn-husk teepee for us to play in.
