When i was a kid, I drew a lot of maps. They started out like my older brother Jeff's maps, whose maps started out like J.R.R. Tolkien's maps. We drew a lot of them. Then I moved on to drawing close-ups of cities, just like this one. Well, not that close up, but pretty close.
Now our oldest is following in my footsteps with Stepney Green. I kinda like it.
I wish I had kids to draw me pictures! All I get are "tootsie rolls" in the cat box!!
ReplyDeleteWell, Steve Martin has a story about that. It's called "The Bohemians," and involves kids who create art in the morning and yet are temperamental and flush it away without thinking much about it.
