Early Work
Monday, October 4, 2010 at 09:52PM It's been interesting to be at home once again and revisit a familiar place through new eyes. I recently did some rifling through the attic and found some of my earliest drawings which is pretty fun.
In those days I worked largely with a large pallette of bold colors...ahem..an 8 pack of crayola markers, utilizing both sides of fine white construction paper. My signature was visible and large, and sometimes I would take the artistic license to throw in a few extra e's or s's into the spelling of my name. Most of my drawings contained a narration or explanation recorded directly on the drawing by the authorities (Ms. Becky and Mrs. Holly), and contained subject matter of rocks, people, houses, rainbows and mermaids...
...so not much has changed, really. It's all about just filling the space between snack time and nap time.
Not all oblong things are created equal.
That was nice of me not to eat the whole heart. Always hungry.

You've come and long way Kelsey! And you're coming a long way this summer to draw some more...looking forward to hosting you and your amazing talent in Sunny Karamea this summer.
I'm currently on the beautiful tropical Thai island paradise of Koh Chang with my wife Sanae enjoying some R&R ahead of what will be the busiest Summer of LOVE ever at Rongo, back October 25.
See you soon,
Cheers from Koh Chang,
Paul.
