THIS COLLECTION OF DRAWINGS CAME FROM THE FRUSTRATION I HAD WITH A COWORKER WHO I WORKED SIDE BY SIDE WITH, FOR YEARS. WE WERE HOUSE CLEANERS, AND SPENT LOTS OF TIME IN THE CAR TOGETHER WE ENDED UP ARGUING ALL THE TIME WHILE DRIVING FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE, SO EVENTUALLY I SUGGESTED THAT WHEN WE WERE IN THE CAR, SHE SHOULD JUST LISTEN TO THE RADIOAND THAT I’D JUST DRAW. 

I WOULD FOLD AND TEAR SHEETS OF REGULAR PRINTER PAPER IN HALF AND USED ONLY A BLUE BALLPOINT PEN TO DRAW WITH. I STARTED DRAWING AND A BANANA WEARING JEANS APPEARED ON THE PAGE.  ANOTHER PAGE AND IT WAS A PIG WITH A BOWLING BALL. THEN AN EAR OF CORN USING A PHONE, A ROBOT DELIVERING MAIL, A SUNFLOWER YELLING AT AN ANTEATER, OR A MUSTACHE TAKING A NAP. SOMETIMES I’D FALL ASLEEP ON LONG RIDES AND WAKE UP SURPRISED AT WHAT I WAS IN THE PROGRESS OF DRAWING.

OVER THE TIME SHE AND I WORKED TOGETHER, I PRODUCED OVER 9OO OF THESE DRAWINGS IN HER CAR. 

PEOPLE USUALLY SMILE TRYING TO PROCESS THE STRANGE IMAGES KNOWN AS THE "FOORNUS CHECK SLEEVE DRAWINGS".  THERE ARE NO HIDDEN MEANINGS.  VIEWERS ARE FREE TO TAKE WHAT THEY LIKE FROM MY WORK.
