“I draw with my kids, six and four years old. Their freedom and joy while drawing are contagious. Once the kids are asleep, I unwind by drawing in my studio or on the couch while watching tv and having a few drinks with my wife. In the morning we start again.
The drawings in this book are from this daily drawing cycle, including one from my kids.
The drawings are bound with thread, the book covers are made from 4 ply Bristol boards, and the books have a handmade foam core slipcase.
The days go by like wildness
My daughter said this. Now I’m borrowing her wisdom for the title of this book.” — Colin Matthes, 2021, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
