Welcome to the World Little Riley

A dedication to the artist couple's young child entering the world, a touching portrait of their young child in lion overalls and their hands held together. A handprint appears on the top-right corner, accompanied by fine calligraphy throughout.

Words can’t describe how overjoyed we are that you’re here. We’re excited to spend this life with you. To see your childhood, and to watch you grow up. To witness all the things that will make you uniquely you. Here are a few things we’ve picked up, some advice for your journey ahead.

Take what you enjoy seriously, because if you give it enough time and practice, it can transform your reality into a life you truly love; Don’t always follow the system. Walk your own path, even if it looks different to everyone else’s; Money is important to a degree, but finding things you’re excited to do everyday is also fundamental to a fulfilling life; If you really want to do something, no-one is important enough to tell you you can’t; Be your own person. Find your passions in life and follow them wherever they take you; And finally, most kids don’t listen to their parents, but you should definitely always listen to yours.

Our wish for you, is that you find your own unique way to not just survive in this world, but to truly thrive.
