i was trying to think of the best way of making this art-o-mat project today and thought of trying those colored pencils who’ve been sitting in my closet for several years… i really had a lot of fun and i think i’ll start using them more often.

new art-o-mat project
i’m working on a new art-o-mat project. it’s going to be a short comic drawn with colored pencils. each will be an original, so not a copy. they sell for $5 and i make a whopping $2.50 per item sold. meaning with shipping costs and the cost of boxes and the fact that it takes about an hour to make each, i’m really not doing this for the money because there isn’t any to make. but i think it’s a good way to get people to know me. here’s a few sketches…
i might also start selling these on etsy.com, but they’ll be slightly more expensive. they also will be original drawings, each being a little different. i got the idea from the shitty products print, which i removed from my site since it looked kind of awful. and i don’t need to have both a print and a comic saying the exact same thing.

my favorite cartoonist
Dan Piraro’s cartoons are the most intelligent cartoons i’ve ever read and for that i love them. i discovered him about 3 years ago while going through my boyfriend’s books. i just subscribed to his blog! for more info about him and his cartoons take a look at bizarro.com
here’s a videoed interview with dan
here’s two funny pics i got from dan’s blog:
this is a link to an interview with Dan Piraro. not surprisingly he sounds like a very likable guy.

the whore who kissed the frog
i came up with the text maybe at least 5 years ago… can’t say i’m very proud of the drawing on this, i might re-draw it eventually. this is the first comic i ever tried to draw, not this version though, i must have re-drawn it at least 5 times and this is the latest one.
i still don’t know what the hell i was thinking by making all the squares the same size… my guess is i probably wasn’t.
this just represents when a guy gives a girl the option of either being a fuck friend or nothing at all. he doesn’t want a relationship but fucking around would be fine and the girl’s in love and thirsty for it so she takes whatever she can. although she’s obviously just getting screwed here cause that’s not what she really wants, probably lying to herself in the process. all i’m trying to say is that relationships are better when all parties want the same thing from each other.
