“Last week my lover from NYC was in LA, I was in Lisbon, he then asked me to visit him in London over the next few days. I couldn’t and he eventually came to Paris, for less than 24 hours.

When I joined him in his suite at his hotel, he had to leave for an appointment. He asked me to seat tight, and gave me a big head of green weed. I don’t smoke and hate to be bored. So I called the reception desk and asked for paper, a pencil and an eraser. Ten minutes later, a cute guy came with everything I asked for. I sat comfy at the office and I drew, I drew to wait, I drew what I was waiting for. These are the drawings of my fantasies. When he finally came back, we made it out, we recorded it with his computer, we watched it and we erased it. So these are the only drawings left of my mind screenshots.”
