pecial #63, by matt Levin: With Gentle Charm, Matt takes us on a simple walk with his early teenage son. All the while affirming the boy's individual identity, Matt's story takes us deep into the life of a teenager, with its' indigenous langauge, and odd outbursts. The images make sense, and one tends to forget they are rubber stamps, because the story is told so eloquently. Immediatly they find commonality in the love for, 'momma' and then Matt ponders his own thirteen year old existance, and how he can use it as a positive guiding force, and not an overwhelming hammer, to encourage, not impale his son. Matt's soft spoken style can easily be missed in the hustle and bustle of today's experience, and I hope one day, his son can share this work with his teenager, to let him know that things will be okay, and how precious time is.
