Little Boxes - Pete Seeger

Colored pencil & black sharpie

Los Angeles 2019

One day, a couple of years ago, I was looking around the apartment for something to draw when my eyes landed on three boxes, stacked upon one another, in the corner of our dining area.

So I quickly sketched them in pencil.

It was an OK drawing and I still have it lying around here somewhere but after I had drawn the boxes in pencil I got out my sharpie and redrew them in ink.

The result was nice..

This got me stared drawing boxes. I drew boxes at home. I drew boxes at work. I drew boxes in my moleskine. I drew boxes.

I soon cut the stack down to two boxes because it looked better.
