FIFTY-ONE

For the fans of post nineteen. I've done a color study of Asiago, sick from eating the garlic baked clams. Gross.

FIFTY (nice!)

Talk about accidental art. I love how this next image came into being. While in Cozumel, I shot a few rolls of film, one of them included an awesome image of Russ Barrnett sleeping on the dock. When I got back to Purchase, I was so unorganized that I reshot using the same roll of Kodak Gold 35mm film. The results were 23 unusable and indiscernible images, and this one gem: The image of the dandelions was exposed yesterday, a solid two weeks after I took the image of Russ. What you see is organic film, not a touch of Photoshop, just a stroke of luck and a solid hour of manual color correction. It's the textbook definition of bricolage, and something I'm really happy with.

I uploaded it full-sized, so all you Barrnett fans can use it as your desktop background.

FORTY-SEVEN

This is page two from my book. You'll have to imagine this post and the last one next to each other, on the same spread. Asiago has pretty much been taking over my life, so I hope you enjoy him and his antics.

FORTY-FIVE

Okay, back on the grid. Mexico was amazing, and I'll put sure to post plenty of drawings from it. This was me since my last post:

As you may imagine, I'm having a bit of trouble becoming acclimated once again to New York. But I promise, my pencil has been moving this whole time.
