i might not have a darkroom or a scanner at my disposal anymore but that doesn't stop me from shooting as if i did
(three dramatic black and white photos of trails through dense woods before any foliage growth, a river valley in the distance, flattened grass, mysterious vibes)
the thing i want to make is imagery that makes you stop in your tracks for a split second
it's a start, but i'm gonna make prints again
(photo of a hand next to a black and white print of a dark photograph that vaguely shows a pine tree root heavily covered in fallen needles)
#hourlycomicsday no. 4; 1200
(a phone displaying the time on a lock screen, then three panels showing the weather, 33F and foggy, an email giving someone contact info, some social media interactions with fake accounts)
#hourlycomicsday no. 3; 1100
(titled "breakfast at last" with labeled drawings of an aeropress, muesli, and dark chocolate covered mint shortbread cookies)
#hourlycomicsday no. 2; 1am
(single panel showing a hand holding a glowing e-reader with indistinct text under the blankets, captioned "you know its a weekend because i'm still reading under the covers")
#hourlycomicsday no. 1; midnight
(three panel black and white comic: a desk with some junk and drawing tools, captioned "hourly comic day begins... this year it is Saturday." a hand holding a black marker, captioned "will this be the year my ancient warm black finally dies?" a hand turning off a light switch, captioned "let's find out".)
the thing about getting a drastically appearance altering haircut before #hourlycomicsday is that i've spent very little time doodling myself in this new look so here we are
(three pencil sketches of me, two wearing cycling caps and one wearing a big animal-eared hood)
haven't been drawing much but i threw down this grumpy head to celebrate the start of #goblinweek #goblinweek2020
(photo of a sketchbook page with an ink and marker drawing of a bald goblin head looking kinda grumpy with a big old underbite)
i've had to put in some extra work to ground myself lately, which includes taking self-portraits:
off-hand #inktober
(shaky ink drawing of a heavily knotted rope and the phrase "There is no better time or place.")
off-hand #inktober
(shaky ink drawing of a spool of thread with the phrase "Leave sufficient air" written out)
give me a bicycle or i'll run everywhere
