Both with a cheerful and happy worth ethic, they brought their three year old son who plays in the space while they’re work on individual paintings which will be hung on their mural. I’ve interviewed Kami in the past for the cover of Giant Robot  #56 and also curated him in an exhibition into an exhibition at the Scion Art Space in Culver City.
