From 1979, for about 15 years, I did illustrations for the record reviews for Audio Magazine. This one of Johnny Cash I specifically remember doing. I had telephoned my illustrator friend, Sally, and while we chatted I mindlessly drew. By the time we finished our conversation the drawing was done. I wish it worked like that all the time.
Some of this stuff I can't identify now, but this is a visual record of all the stuff I remember leaving behind when J and I moved to Seattle. Some of it ended up at thrift stores. A few things stayed with the house. Most of it went to friends or family.
I did this to enter in a weekly competition.
Unfortunately it turned out that "Beards" was last week's competition theme.
This week it's "Jumping".
Fuck jumping.

I've been wanting to do a Lalaloopsy inspired drawing of me & Mal for a while... I'm pretty happy with how it's coming together, I can't wait to colour it in :D
I was at a local coffee shop and drew this young lady doing something on her phone. I don’t think she saw me drawing her.
The Twinkie is one thing I though would always be around because of the million year shelf life.
I heard over the weekend that Hostess was trying to close its doors because of some sort of union problem. Today they announced that they are in Mediation with the Bakers Union per the orders of from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.
In case the negotiations don't go well get your Twinkies while you still can! I haven't eaten a Twinkie in over ten years (gasp!) but I would still like the option to go out and purchase one if I'm struck with a craving.
Twinkie, you will be missed.
