sketches of my suburban childhood days


These drawings were made at my friend Skot's house in santa monica while i was trying to communicate visions of my youth about a year ago. I just saw them again and thought about sharing them. My dad built my brothers and I a fort in the corner of our backyard called "Fort Apache". It was a simple fort with an upper level floor and a slide. We had a wood burned sign above the door and a cloth white flag.
The second drawing is of the wash that ran through the housing development. It became our portal to the wild outside world of dirt roads, bamboo forests and giant trees.
