Really Weird, Twenty-Four-Year-Old Artwork
In case you were curious about what inspired the anonymous toy back-story that I posted at the Vinyl Toy Freaks forum, here it is. I can't post it there, because the contest doesn't allow artwork, only writing. It's a crazy piece that combines a rubbing from the bathroom tile of my parents' house with a felt-tip pen drawing. I saw a couple of characters in the tile patterns, and rather than have them start talking to me, I decided to draw them. I'll post the other one soon, which I think is a marginally better drawing.Labels: artwork, cat, contest, drawing, drawings, jeff pidgeon, online forums, rufus j. cirrus, vinyl toy freaks

Jeff,
That's pretty cool ... especially considering you were quite likely a teen at the time you did this drawing.
Yup! I was nineteen. Yikes!
Patterned floor tile, drapes, carpet, and acoustic ceilings have provided lots of inspiration for me as well.
Yes, it's great to have that imaginative eye to see things in floor tile, drapes, carpet and ceiling tile.
I'm sure you've heard the story that Walt Disney saw EPCOT (as a living, breathing, working community not a theme park/permanent world's fair) in the ceiling tiles above his deathbed.

No, actually! I'd never heard that.
