/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>doing artist alley this weekend.
>met at least a couple older parents who were there to check out the con while supporting their kids art in the AA.
>one is an older gentlemen who is really nice and compliments my art and gets into discussion with me about the series and art that inspired the fanart.

I get sad thinking how my dad has never been that nice or supportive of my art. He's either ignored or belittled my work(nobody will buy it, I'm cheating if I use any digital tools, etc....) and thinks conventions are for freaks.
