FUNNY KID'S DRAWINGS: MY LSD PSYCHEDELIC CHILDHOOD. HIPPIE FLOWER POWER RAINBOW CHILD'S ARTWORK.
It’s always a mind-trip to dive into my archive of childhood drawings. (Remember this and this post?) I wonder: what type of psychedelics were swirling around in my brain back then? A yin yang, musical notes, cute animals, rainbows, an optical illusion line… far out, mannn.
One of my favorite cartoons was Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers (anyone remember The Disney Afternoon?). I also liked the mushroom character Toad from Nintendo’s Super Mario Brothers. Funny that I drew him pixelated and reclining in an armchair.
The early 90s were all about neon: hot pink, highlight yellow and toxic green. You can tell that I always loved Sanrio characters. I don’t think I got the faddish 3D mouse watch I wanted for Xmas…
My life was a bed of rainbows. On the left, I drew goldfish dressed in fancy garments and relaxing in a boat… huh?
My map of my elementary school included a gumdrop tree… and lice bushes? Stay away from those!
What were you like as a wee one? Do you have any psychedelic memories or artwork?
Went to the Tim Burton exhibit at the MoMA today; you can look forward to coverage of this and more NYC/Tokyo awesomeness. Now I better sleep… there’s a full day of NHK TV filming tomorrow…
Song of the Day #281: Luna Sea – Storm (Who doesn’t love this catchy track?)

Is it just me or does it look like Toad’s having both it’s middle fingers up? xD
Hahahah! It does!
Hahahah! It does!
Ohhh you managed to snag my favorite LS song for the song of the day <3 I mostly drew anime stuff when I was a kid…I drew a lot of angels, actually, which I think is quite reflective of the type of person I ended up being–not to say that I wound up being angelic, but that I have always had a fascination with the divine and ethereal.
That made me awwww out loud! :)
Can’t wait to see you again soon.

I don’t know where my old drawings are. But I’ve seen my old compositions. I must say I’ve always been an introspective and sensitive person. Cute drawings, by the way.
