New Additions

A couple of weeks ago we took Cole's mom to the amazing and wonderful Renegade Craft Fair at Fort Mason.  It's a huge building, right on the water, chock full of crafters and their wares.


We were pretty excited when we turned a corner and saw Ryan Berkeley manning his stand with his mother alongside him.  We excitedly started rifling through the animal portraits, trying to decide which ones to add to our (very slowly) burgeoning collection.  It was an excruciatingly difficult decision.  The gorilla was in the running.  And the shark.  And the pygmy marmoset.  And the goat lazily eating part of his tie.

In the end, these are the guys who made it:


I love how the donkey looks so earnest while wearing what appears to be a 70s-era silvery-white tux [he was Cole's pick; she thinks he looks like Frank Sinatra].  I chose the "wait, what, you're taking my picture now?!" sea otter, looking so jaunty in his bowler hat and vest.

We now have four Ryan Berkeley prints.  That means we have, oh, several dozen more to go.
