Big City Doodle



I woke up one day and realized I wanted to draw windows, lots of windows, lots and lots and lots of windows. Windows to infinity. I doodled little rectangle after little rectangle, for hours. It was hypnotic. I think I'm over it now, but maybe not...

I like the atmospheric perspective too. Again, that parallax style.

I think obsessiveness is interesting to people. Must exploit it more.

Marty, is there a pattern to your globe-trotting, or is it a random walk?

I am going out to Albuquerque to record an engine being dyno'ed.

Virginia was to visit Blair's alma mater and her sister + family. Good times!

Fantastic! It looks very retro, like from the late 1960s or early 1970s.

Neat drawing... it reminds me of a poster I had when I was a kid... someone gave me the large poster that was a cartoon map of Boston with lots of buildings and little cartoon people roaming the streets. It was highly detailed and really fun to look at and find all the tiny Sergio-style gags hidden in it. The irony that I ended up living close to Boston for 3 years is not lost on me.

Speaking of which, I recently realized that I've been away from Sony longer than I was employed by them. Weird.

I used to have a couple of posters hanging in my room as a kid in the sixties. They were kind of doodle-like in this same way. They had thousands of little people in a fantasy city setting. I loved those pictures and was fascinated by them in the same way. Wish I had saved them or knew who the artist was. I'd track him down and find out if he still had any copies stored away.

Funny Rick, I still think of you as a San Diegan temporarily away from home. And I still think of myself as a Bay Area resident on an extended stay in San Diego.
