My 3 Messes



So these are three out of five messes that I drew. 

One sunday, I was at piney lake with Kristen doing a bunch of homework and all of my books were compiled and overlapping and I looked at it, and I was like, "hmm I kind of want to put these books in a pile" which made me realize it was a mess. I drew the contour of the books first and then added the detail a bit later.

Trash is always considered a mess, but when I looked in my trash can, it was empty. So I had to come up with some things that might be in my trash can, like the multiple kleenex I would have to use for the cold I caught that week, or the bowls that I use for my daily meal of special k and milk in the morning.

Getting hungry, I opened my refrigerator, to find organic peanut butter, which made me think of my refrigerator at home, since it's always stocked with 2 or 3 jars. My dad was constantly cleaning the fridge because my mom would keep things for days on end even after they were half rotten. So I decided to draw, from imagination, what my refrigerator at home probably looks like right now.
