From the preface: Parking tickets, coffee, packs of gum, shoes, electricity bills, and burritos. I have been drawing something that I purchase every day since February 5th, 2006. The book in your hands represents a selection of these daily drawings. I draw objects that are rather mundane: Coke cans, Post-it notes, toilet bowl cleanerùsundry items that a lot of consumers have a shared experience with; items that we interact with, but donÆt really think about. I love documenting the mundane and, in turn, putting a personal face on something that is mass-produced.
