funny boy


a few days ago i walked into kai's bedroom and found this picture on his desk. at first it was just the figure in the middle. i asked him to tell me about it. he said it was an old man. i totally see that. i immediately fell in love with this drawing. do you see it? the figure in the middle, bending over. i think it's fantastic. the next day still thinking about it, i went back to the notebook and he had added more stuff. so i asked him to tell me more about it. he said the old man is now an old man without skin with a hat floating above him. the figure on the right is a man with skin jump roping and his stomach with a bunch of stuff in it. (he's had a recent facination with the human body, so that's where the skin/no skin comes from.)

and the lines on the left behind the old man without skin is africa. hmmmm.... interesting. anyhow, i love this. don't know why, but i think it's a masterpiece!
