Art from 1970

 

Some pictures my mom sent me recently. You can click on them to see bigger versions if you’re really bored. I drew these about a month before my sixth birthday. Hmmm. Old supermarkets and dumpy motels. Funny that my interests haven’t really changed all that much since 1970…

It’s weird the things you notice and remember as a kid. Like the Better Business Bureau sign and the way the letters in neon signs all connected together. And I apparenty had this real obsession with different kinds of doors…

Anyhow, I think I did a pretty good rendering of Belk’s “Big B” for a five-year-old and I like my A&P. Pity I couldn’t quite manage to spell “Woolworth”…
