I was in Vanessa’s Dumpling House in Chinatown and I noticed a Buddha statue. I drew him. Now, I had this floating statue on my sketchbook page. It seemed lonely. So, I drew a child’s block and cat under him to ground the whole image. I finished the sketch off by drawing items I found around my sister’s house, which I stacked one on top of the other. A strange compilation indeed. Not sure if this is how artists went about painting still life’s during the Renaissance. Maybe.
