Here’s a drawing I made ten years ago, when I was eighteen.
Plants drawn from memory with invisible ink (Either azalea or hibiscus)
Lemon juice and gouache on paper, 2012–13

Fight (2002)
Acrylic gesso and ink on illustration board.
The black dashes on the right thigh are a jailhouse tattoo I’d just given myself with in and an X-acto knife. I got a real tattoo over it a couple years later. I think this drawing is in my studio now, weirdly (most of my really old stuff is in a storage unit in southern Ohio, just as weirdly).
