waiting, pt. 2

From the same airport waiting session. This is based on a photo of Eleanor Friedberger from the Fiery Furnaces.

waiting, pt. 1

2009-12-04T22:40:00.000-08:00

Drew this when I was waiting in the terminal for a flight that got delayed by six hours. It was late at night so everything else in the airport was closed, even food places. I got really absorbed in drawing and it actually wasn't so bad. This was based on a photo in GQ magazine.

This was the first thing I ever made with gouache paint. I was sooo proud. Now it seems kind of cheesy but 4 years ago I was so stoked to have made this.

I drew this during math class. Pre-calculus sophomore year, the last math class I ever took.

Rats are highly intelligent creatures. I went through a phase where I would get all the work done early in Spanish class then spend the rest of the class painting with water colors.

I remember thinking this was SO FUNNY. Drawn during class, probably Spanish or World History.

Fear not, readers; you have not been forgotten. I am currently scanning a bunch of stuff. This Summer I am going to buckle down and maintain posting on this blog much more. And when I run out of old things to scan I guess that means I'll start drawing again.

Joe and Paul, you guys post more too!

Collaboration with PMAC THE WAC ATTAC <--secret artist name to protect artist's identity

You will notice CATPANCH. You will notice ANTEATER. These are based on pictures that I have most recently saved to my computer.

See the hamster drawings. Maybe there will be a '90s flashback ham drawing post. Maybe there will be many.

I am laying in the grass.

art crimes

2008-08-22T19:07:00.000-07:00

California Penal Code Section 594-625c

"594. (a) Every person who maliciously commits any of the following
acts with respect to any real or personal property not his or her
own, in cases other than those specified by state law, is guilty of
vandalism:
(1) Defaces with graffiti or other inscribed material.
(2) Damages.
(3) Destroys. (...)

"(g) The court may order any person ordered to perform community
service or graffiti removal pursuant to subdivision (e) or (f) to
undergo counseling. (...)

"622. Every person, not the owner thereof, who willfully injures,
disfigures, or destroys any monument, work of art, or useful or
ornamental improvement within the limits of any village, town, or
city, or any shade tree or ornamental plant growing therein, whether
situated upon private ground or on any street, sidewalk, or public
park or place, is guilty of a misdemeanor."

What if the graffiti itself is a work of art, or useful or ornamental improvement? In such a case, it would be a crime not only to create it in the first place, but also to remove it...
