I made this piece in the early Fall. Don't let the title push you into a certain mindset. This is an abstract piece and the interpretation is flexible. I consider the title as a place to begin appreciation. I'll share what I think, but perhaps you would care to take a moment to make your own interpretation before reading mine:


When I made this piece I was thinking about cities, and I wanted to create an image where the buildings seemed like people. I didn't want to clearly depict a city, but rather the sense of commotion and vertigo. I didn't want the buildings to look exactly like people but I wanted them to have a human-like posture, like a group of statesman questioning somebody (or should I say an auto executive?) Above all, I wanted the image to be simple.


If you have the time, on this cold snowy day, I'd like to read what you think when you see this.

This piece was made this fall. It currently exists in a sketchbook, hence the shadowy appearance of the photograph. This image makes a good desktop background, I recommend setting it as "centered" and using a very light gray color for the surroundings.

I made this about a month ago after watching Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I'm thinking of taking this image and making an oil painting, possibly adding some color.
