Self Portrait at the Potty

Self Portrait at the Potty or There is a Potty in My Head

Please click on my photo to see it on flickr with notes on it...

I was so excited that I was with Bowie when he drew this. Not just in the house but right next to him because there is a chance I might not have grasped what he was creating, his first little self portrait. When I took my art education classes, early education classes we looked at loads of drawings like these. Somehow, there is a collective knowledge about drawing that leads the majority of children to go through this step. Bowie has never seen someone else draw this way. It is fascinating to me.
