New sketch: two birds, one stone…

(Gonna just draw every idea that’s even slightly erotic until something seems worthy of an upcoming event in February…)

AND!!! I cannot say enough good things about Recovery Bike Shop — who let me rummage their dragon hoard of used frames, and broke out the expensive groove tools to fix the crank casing. “Don’t drop it; costs $150 just to readjust the cutters” … fuck!

Much love to CenterPoint Welding, who knew EXACTLY what I was bringing them, and how to fix it — including covering for the original engineering flaws with more plating.

Bike frame busted over a month ago. After a long journey, here is El Bikamino IV.

I love bicycles, HATE installing the cables and chain. Just fuck my hands and wrists right up; not like I need them for EVERYTHING I do…

My only motivation is that every person in my orbit said that AFTER I was done with the fish cluster print, I should use the banana cluster to draw dicks. Y’all are some simple minded creatures.

Do we start off the same way as last time? When I say, “I know this looks odd — but trust me, I know what I’m doing with this”?

…because I don’t know what I’m doing. All I know is, everyone told me to do this for the upcoming SafeWord event…

Ode to Black Mirror.

One of the few shows that is too intense for me to binge.

(18x24-inch, 3-color screen print - one color is a metallic silver online images can’t do justice.)

And! Coming up —> fiber art and gifts.

Four events; meanwhile, I haven’t had the time to touch a drawing pad in two weeks…

Busy at the studio this weekend. This includes the show hanging at Wabasha Brewing, and the show hanging at Norseman Distillery. (And admin work to be done at ALTR Gallery.)

From the cellular level up to skill sharing/training — COOPERATION has been the basis of most higher evolutions.

Now we must explain why CHILD RAPE is wrong to the metaphorical single-cell political trolls — in record reaction time to the evidence that their hero is (ALSO) a child rapist.

Werewolf Wednesday; there’s something just perfect in the figure’s hair that I haven’t been able to duplicate since… I should draw a werewolf roller-derby girl.

(…the futile feeling of gathering drawing ideas/references in a world ready to collapse…)

Reposting this art for two reasons: 1. I had to rebuild the digital file from past films due to losing the original. 2. I plan to change the colors to make a trans rights sticker (living fossil = “always existed; always will”)

...website ownership doubled in price over the last six months; updated the shop to reflect the most recent year's prints to make this worth it.

Tarot card: The Star.

OAC will probably make the Tarot Art Show an annual event, and so I need another idea to illustrate…

(BlueSky will no doubt hide this behind an adult content tag, yet: 1. I consider this functional nudity, not sexual, 2. Star is immortal - this isn’t su!c!de, its renewal.)

And finally: that time when Toho was like - let’s rip off the Matrix movies, add in Soace Battleship Yamamoto, and use EVERY monster we liked against Godzilla.

It’s so fucking terrible. But bonus: they kill the US 1998 Godzilla in short fashion then trash talk it as a “tuna eating” bitch.
