the surburban landscape


final project for my drawing course this term. I never give myself enough time to complete my "vision"

really, I've seen worst messes.


The roof of my "doll house". This did not turn out the way I wanted, but I am keeping it. It looks rather juvenile, and not in the "quaint, nostalgic" good way either. Like it was made by a third-grader who doesn't give a crap.
Think I should've made the strips thinner.
faaack, I still have four other books to slice up.

I know you're creating art with those books. But somehow, it hurts seeing those words vanish:(

I know. but they were really awful, cliched books.
it came from a series from the 50s which specifically divided books for little girls and little boys, and had just cringe-worthy passages in them.
One story had a character named Tom Faggus. I'm sure in the 60s the authors understood the connation, yeah?
