The Freeway

My playful poetic travel sketch depicts a California traffic jam silkscreen printed by hand in bright white over metallic silver and green on rich brown cardstock.

From a distance my wild drawing looks like a tangle of loopy wiry lines, and then you begin to notice the details. There are cars and trucks jostling and jockeying for position past yucca and sage and grapevines and poplars... in the center foreground one car has a bike on the roof. Way in the background you can see an overpass and beyond that a sombrero-shaped mountain. On the left looms an oversized streetlight while on the right you can see one of the air raid sirens that still rustily dot the San Fernando Valley.
