fourteen


I have recently finished this print for my nephew, who's just turned fourteen (fourteen?!  How did that happen?) and wanted something to put in his newly-blue room for his birthday.

Gone are the days of play-fighting and drawing pictures together, or pretending to be explorers with electric-tape-moustaches, and eventually giving in to anime videos for a brief, but blissful rest from all of the curiosity, and questions and running around.  But what a marvellous lad he has grown into (still curious, still inquisitive and as sharp as an axe).  Anyway, I hope he will like this collection of moths; one for each year we've been fortunate to have him around.  Happy birthday Aaran!
