Somewhere in Oklahoma…

…there is this house. I can’t remember the name of the place anymore.
I found this drawing yesterday together with some of my Europe sketches. This is actually a laser photocopy of the original. I did the original during school and it was my first and last job as an (amateur) ‘illustrator’. Why first and last? Because I was not studying art and was not planning to become an illustrator. But a classmate found my drawings nice and she wanted me to draw this house from a photo. She was even willing to pay me for it and it was meant as a present to a family of hers. I believe they were moving into this house.

I can remember that back then, when I just finished this drawing, I found it cool and nice. Yesterday, I thought it looks a bit ‘ghostly’ or ‘creepy’. I suppose the style and may be the way I drew the trees gave me that feeling. How funny! It’s a nice thing to be able to look back at what I’ve done/drawn years ago. And of course, my opinion and taste have changed over the years…
