this is one of my drawings for a special benefit for API (animal protect institute) called “fight for flight” at thinkspace gallery in LA.

the title is “lost but found”. it’s hard to see, but it says on the tag attached to my left leg, “in front of katsura station, 22h” in japanese. and on the fuurin (wind chime), it says “thank you”.

“National Bird Day will take place on Sat, Jan. 5th, 2008 and we’ll be hosting a special exhibition entitled “Fight For Flight” that will have an opening reception on Fri, January 4th. The opening will be sponsored by Dewars and Grolsch and will take place from 7-11PM on Fri, Jan. 4th. There will be a special installation from P. Williams in our front room and an exhibition in our main gallery featuring over 50 artists from all across the U.S. and as far off as Japan, Germany, Australia, Canada and Scotland.

On Sat, Jan. 5th we’ll be open from noon till 6PM for further viewing of the show. We will be hosting a special coloring contest for kids taking place in our project room that afternoon to further encourage families to come through together and experience this amazing gathering of talent and hopefully walk away with some knowledge gained on our feathered friends and all things cute and furry that the API help to protect and defend.”

a drawing on construction paper (2001).

i used paul’s colour pencils from his elementary school days. back when i didn’t know that he existed. his name was written on each of them. it’s funny that now his colours are with me on my drawing.
