When
I was 6 or so, I made these family
portraits. Tempura paint on hard board.
I was obsessed with swastikas at the time. I had no idea what they meant.
I just thought they were strong. I was really into question marks and
exclamtion points, too, for some reason. There are additional paintings
of my mother, my two brothers and my sister, but I can't find them.
Now that I look at this one, it's a totally evil depiction. He doesn't
even have red hair. I kind of had this pirate thing happening here with
a bandana. I'm convinced that when you're a child, it's like you're
on psychadelic drugs all the time. Obviously, I was on angel dust when
I painted this.
