I drew this card while my dad and I were driving to Gold Beach to help move my grandparents up to Portland. It has no particular meaning or message. I always enjoy the unpredictable irregularities that occur while drawing on the road. Sometimes it is best to let the vibrations make the drawing. I often try to simulate random jigglies by moving my hand around, so it is a relief to see them flow naturally.

The shape of this drawing may be inspired by some of my childhood renderings. As a kid I often drew large landscapes on huge rolls of paper, full of mountains, valleys and cliffs. I would fill the landscape with stick figure soldiers, tanks, helicopters and military bases with large weaponry. The landscape pictured here could be a modernization of those drawings, a cliff of sorts. On the side of the cliff is a mechanical building meshed together with the rock. It forms a sort of face with a huge tongue sticking out on the right. That's about all I have to say about that.
