Oh, man. I wish my parents were as interested in my art, or the rest of my life, as the person in this video.
This is the first episode How to Explain it to My Parents, a documentary series in which 9 abstract artists explain to their mom and dad what their work is all about.
Here, Arno Coenen describes his work to his father and makes me realize that life never changes. While it’s an interesting exercise to try to explain your abstract art to your father, this conversation really boils down to hurt feelings at his father not coming to his exhibition. I guess we’re all in Little League till we die, hoping our parents make it to the game in time to see our big homerun.

Oh man, I love the intro to the New Mutants… what a terrific cover too… I love how they are totally unfamiliar compared to the X–Men.
**New Mutants cover art **: At the offices of Comiclink, Josh Nathanson showed me some of his original art. He didn’t have his splash page for X-Men #1 in the office, but he did have this — the original cover art for Marvel Graphic Novel #9 — the intro of the New Mutants.
