"Notice, also,the submarine under water in the foreground. Ian explained to me that the green structure has two slides, one for Micah, and one for him. The structure above it is for climbing."

"Noice, also, the rocket ship on the right, also with "USA." Ian also draws lighthouses. He describes the things that look like ears (see above) as the lights."

"Is that a ceiling fan or a light? Ian draws lights the same way."

"It's unusual to make a whole outline like this, with body, neck, and head all one unit. Ian also does outlines of vehicles and animals."

"It's interesting to see Ian's adaptation of motifs--His propellers are akin to his unicycle tires. Lately, he's begun to represent lights (inside a house) with similar lines radiating out from a circle."
