they're big.
file name/piece's name -- size. date of creation. general description.
dialogue.jpg. 35K. April 1999. Drawn for my school newspaper, so a few of the references come off as in-jokey (actually, because they are). I can't stand the way I drew the 50's style hair.
Dun Dun Dun. 33K. Spring 1998. The drawing that opens up my site is taken from this cartoon. to read indecipherable handwriting: dundundun.txt.
art.jpg. 34K. Spring 1998. As an eighth grade art project, we had to comment on a trip we took to the Dia, a museum located in Chelsea. Shoes and hands contemplate the meaning of art, hence the file name.
Vinyl B. 30K. August/September 1997. The copy here is an upload of a scan of a photocopy. At risk of pushing my self-indulgence off a cliff, the original is far better -- at least, the process is clearer. The background, which is plain red in this version, was first painted and then crossed with colored pencil in a checkerboard pattern. The merry-go-round's top was made in the same process. The record was cut from shiny origami paper. Each character was drawn on paper and cut and pasted. This was done as an entry for a magazine contest -- not surprisingly, it didn't win.
face.jpg. 28K. June 1999. I did this while sitting in a park that smelled of urine...sitting there waiting for my mother...after a four-day basketball camp, my injured leg cramping up and spasming and a lot of people's dogs adding to urine-smell all around me. This is what pictures are made of. I was attempting to depart from my typical "cartoony" mode of drawing, but ended up in the same rut as all of my quasi-realistic drawings: the face is too damn long and narrow. And I hate the shoulders.
