A Dad Started Coloring In His Kids' Drawings — And Produced Some Amazing Art Reddit has been buzzing about a dad who takes his young kids' drawings on business trips and colors them in to pass the time on the plane. It's both an adorable collaboration between father, son and daughter as well as an impressive collection of surrealist art. We reached out to the artist, Fred Giovannitti, who goes by Tatsputin on Reddit, to find out more. "I invent industrial equipment designed to save and protect the world's marine ecosystems," he wrote. "To help pay for this, I travel 10 days each month to Las Vegas, where I own a small tattoo studio." When he's not traveling, Giovannitti lives in Delaware with his wife and two children, eight-year-old Freddie and six-year-old Sofia. "Sometimes people seem like they don't want to bother me so they keep quiet," Giovannitti said in an email to Business Insider, "Other times, with the more sociable flight mates, they think I'm coloring my own drawings and are always surprised to hear the story behind what I'm doing." His work with tattoos inspired the way he chose to shade the drawings with colored pencils. Lately, he has started experimenting with coloring his kids' drawings on his iPad using the ArtStudio app after snapping a photo of the line drawing. Giovannitti said it actually takes less time for him to work with the colored pencils because he's more comfortable with the medium, but either way, he can finish a drawing in one of the three-hour legs of his flight across the country. "Although I will be dabbling more on the tablet," Giovannitti wrote, "I'll be sticking to the pencils mostly for our future collaborations."  Fred Giovannitti colors his kids' drawings while flying for business trips. Giovannitti colored this Santa just this week based on a drawing by his daughter Sofia.  Giovannitti also colored this holiday elf this week based on a drawing by his son Freddie.   Sofia drew these cats while Giovannitti added a blue sky behind them.           The first time Giovannitti experimented with coloring on his iPad it was because he forgot to bring his colored pencils on his flight.
