  i'm posting a couple more friends-only drawings from pocketbook that are a little more personal.

comment if you want me to add you. thus far my friends list on here is pretty limited and is mostly just artists whom i admire.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... washington, washington!

i went to south dakota in september for a tattoo convention with my old roommate annie.. i think it's a lot better to draw cliche shit than photograph it! ha!

also from california this summer, watching 'genius party' w/ tony, brady, and voln. i really really recommend genius party to anyone who hasn't seen it! although this drawing is pretty much entirely unrelated!

this had a whole whole whole lot of tiny pencil rendering from while i was hanging out at tony's work.. but keeping a sketchbook in your pocket and sitting on it all day is not a good way to keep pencil detail. :p

the writing on the top is me whining about not bringing my 35mm camera.. but i think in the end it's a lot better that i didn't because it would probably have been stolen along with my digital. ha.

  'why don't i draw more?'

i think the question its self is getting in the way of drawing.

i went to art school so i'd draw more.
didn't really work. [and often i think maybe i should have majored in illustration!]

and i started tattooing so i would draw more.
also didn't really work.

having more responsibilities doesn't make it happen, having less responsibilities doesn't make it happen. traveling helps a lot, like a freaking lightning bolt of inspiration to the base of my consciousness. but that's fleeting.

what am i doing though? complaining? nay!

i want to know what keeps you going. what makes your art good and what makes it stay good. getting into a slump where drawing loses its fun from atrophy is dangerous.. pull me out of this funk!

  a note on photography-


i used to think that good photography involved a lot of luck, being in the right place at the right time, finding beauty and capturing it.

at a point i realized that i no longer felt that way. it was like getting slapped with a cinderblock. i don't want to just make documents.

but at what point does appropriation begin and end? what kind of art ISN'T a means of processing existing objects and images?








i dunnoooooo~
