GUYS! I feel like a real blogger now with a brand new header and a hand drawn crest logo.
I actually figured out the html stuff and am therefore very proud of myself.
Oh yeah. We’re making a zine.
It’s called “American Traditions for Families Abroad”. This is the rough sketch of the first issue’s cover “art”. Yeah, I know the “i” is missing in families, one of the many reasons its rough.
Includes articles such as “Tuesday Johnson’s History for the Modern Revivalist”, “Meteorological Updates from the Endogenous T.G. Johnson”, “Mortal Matter: Health Check by Dr. Johnson”, “Tangerine’s Esoteric Instructionals”, “Ms. Nevaeh’s Words You Should Fucking Know”, “Relationship advice from the Virile Puerto Rican Sex Goddess”
Also including Missed Connections, Literary Comics, photos of Cats, and photography contests for all you artistic readers (this issues topic: Nihilism).
I’m finally catching up with the 30 day drawing challenge I promised myself I would do.
I’m on day 2 and 3, favorite animal and favorite food, respectively. I combined them because I was too lazy to get another sheet of paper.
My friend and I decided we needed a local, communal outlet that wasn’t in NYC, and wasn’t an attempt at legitimate protest to air our mid-twenties crises and frustrations.
So we created the Localized Violence Committee.
—and I made our crest.
Our slogan is “Anger, Action, Angst.”
Jesus, I haven’t drawn from life in a really long time.
So don’t fucking judge me. I’m doing this drawing challenge in hopes I’ll improve at least a little and get into a habit of putting pen to paper daily.
Also, my girlfriend thinks my style is wonky because I started drawing later than most and without a clue as to an academic approach. I think I thought cross hatching looked cool and like I actually knew what I was doing, and I was super into R. Crumb and thought anything he did must be badass.
Thus was born my horrible artistic habits.
Hey all, I just wanted to let you guys know that I just re-opened my Etsy shop, Toothsome Prints. I made a few new additions if you all are interested!
i started drawing again, you guys.
