It's Thanksgiving! Here's my late friend Pierce's favorite newspaper comic about the holiday, by the great Ron Cobb
A one-panel newspaper comic by Ron Cobb. At the top, a family say grace at a dinner table with a roast turkey on it. Below them we see a cross-section of the flooring and a few layers of earth before a layer of the skeletal remains of Native Americans, demonstrating that (white, middle-class) society is built on the bones of indigenous people

Day seventeen: the annual tarot card redraw. This year we have The Moon. We like the moon! 'Cause it is close to us.
(I lightened up the moon in Photoshop and erased a wonky line on the left-hand border, so this one is slightly edited.)

#artober #drawtober
pen and ink re-draw of a tarot card, the moon. the name of the card is at the bottom, while the numeral, XVIII, is at the top. the image features an almost-full moon in the sky between two buildings from Manchester, England, and Philadelphia, PA. closer to us a wolf is howling at the moon, facing a very small chihuahua sitting on a barstool and also howling at the moon. between the two canines a path leads across hills and distant mountains. in the extreme foreground a horseshoe crab is crawling from waves that are just lapping onto the bottom of the card. everything is in black apart from the moon, which is a lighter grey.

Day sixteen: Japanese fashion from Phaidon's Fresh Fruits. This book is 20 years old now, and the magazine it draws from is even older! What I guess I'm saying is all these cool kids are now middle aged and deeply uncool.

The girl on the right has long hair and bangs. she wears a white scarf/muffler over a jacket with a fur trim running down the central zipper. she also wears a flowing knee-length skirt with white trim, knee socks, and strappy shoes. she is carrying a bag that also has fur trim.

Day fifteen: Avril Lavigne, circa 2003. Why? No, that was a different track on the album. This is more of a Sk8er Boi vibe.

#artober #drawtober
pen and ink drawing of Avril Lavigne circa 2003's 'Sk8er Boi' video. she wears a fitted t-shirt, flared Dickies work pants with striped socks, and a pair of slip-on Chuck Taylors. Around her neck is loosely knotted striped tie, which was the style at the time. One of her arms has an arm party going on with a couple of studded/spiked leather bracelets and a bunch of jelly bands. She's flipping the horns with both hands, and in one hand she holds a microphone. A chain goes from a belt loop to her pocket, which was the style at the time. Her legs are straight but her body is flipped entirely forwards, and her head is thrown back to face us. Honestly, it's a really weird pose but it's kind of a weird stylistic choice? At least I'm not disregarding anatomy just to show off her boobs and her butt at the same time like Frank Cho or Milo Manara or somebody, y'know?
