I think its both funny and humbling to see these primitive images I created back then. Its clear that I was trying to find myself as a person and as an artist like a teenager finding his personal style. The figure in the Box was borrowed from my oldest brother's idea about the figure trying to get out of the limits of the framed surface. he would sketch it out in the back of his notebooks in high school and college. I guess it was from him that I began drawing jet planes and Disney characters as a child. Thanks Migs....Maybe I can dig up some of those images from the vault....
