28 december

today it's one year since my grandfather died. although he was very sick during the past ten years of my life, i felt we had a very similar mind and the same obsessions.


when i was a child, he loved to combine my child's drawings with his own. i remember how everyone told me to feel honored that he would use my drawings, but as a little child i never understood why nobody told him to feel honored that he could use mine.


this is a picture i made during the last years of his life. i had an entire sketchbook filled with drawings i made during those last years, but the book was stolen in barcelona. this is one of the few drawings i have left.
