Housing Fall

I have gobs of housing market ideas scattered throughout my sketchbook, but this image popped into my head a few days ago. The concept of houses falling like leaves from a tree jumped out at me as being both a dynamic visual and having layers of meaning. I think it does a good job representing the ailing market and how it’s part of the larger economy. But the image also raises the question of whether all of this is cyclical. Maybe it’s just a long “market correction” that comes along every decade or so? No matter what, it’s undeniable many Americans are being affected by the slump.
