DAVE MULLER

[40]

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 1357 AND 1369 MINUTES

— In the spring of 1987 I was finishing a chemistry degree at UC Davis. In what would have been my graduating term, I took a beginning drawing class for fun, taught by visiting artist Scott Bell. Our assignment was to draw the same thing at least once a day in our sketchbook. A Japanese monster toy that spit sparks when you spun its wheels. Having never really drawn before, a new door opened.

Scott Bell, wherever you are, thanks.
