I just love to sketch and doodle. There is nothing else I would rather do then be lost in the clouds of my imagination.
A few weeks ago I started drawing a highway on a regular sketch paper.
Sure enough I ran out of space on that paper & the highway just ended – going to nowhere. I added another piece and just continued the sketch. I ran out of space again & just added another piece.
This went on for days and even weeks. Alone sketching in my room, letting my mind wonder freely.
This reminds me of this lady, friend of the family, she lives up in NewPaltz, NY. When she used to live with us, she used to tell me…
“Don’t let anything stop you from getting what you want. Let your mind be free.
Nobody will ever take that away from you.”
So like this photograph, my sketches just grow & grow indefinitely. They seem to be random sketches, but taped together, it created a single image out of the many pieces.
Before I knew it – it was 10 pages wide x 10 pages long. I took down some posters from the wall and hung this up. It took the whole wall behind my bed.
That was 85″x110″ of paper with lines that in my imagination represented highways leading to somewhere. All those lines, stretching for miles, set my imagination free.
I was able to go anywhere I wanted and space was no limitation. Once I ran out of places to go all I had to do was add another piece of paper and I was set free again.
