You Have No Idea How Much I Miss You
Pencil and ink on torn book page (c. 1920)
2022

I made this drawing on an otherwise blank page torn from an early twentieth-century book.

The image shows three bright blue rabbits aligned with an empty folding chair, bracketed by a single black dot at the beginning and another at the end, forming a sentence across the page. The dots function as punctuation, positioning the figures and the chair as language rather than narrative illustration.

I drew this while grieving the loss of a paramour; the empty chair stands in for his absence, while the rabbits hold the act of looking.

What began as a quiet, unplanned drawing became a precise articulation of longing and loss.
