About This Artwork: This piece was created for Monsters on Jasmine St. published by Bottle of Smoke Press. It goes with a poem that mentions the time my father was kicked out of the house for a while. He got an apartment not too far away with a friend named Larry. They came over to the house on the weekends to visit us and Larry made me laugh. Not only did he buy me an inflatable Snoopy, but he let me sit on his neck and press his nose while he made strange sounds.
