Between the Blogs

My name is Natalie- and this is a blog focused on Elliott Smith, a musician that released albums in the band Heatmiser and released solo work in the 90s and early 2000s.

Made this little Elliott drawing recently!

I've been pretty dead on here for the past few years, sadly 😞 I post much more frequently on my instagram @missmisery8 if y'all are interested in checking out my artwork.

I've started making an animated music video for "Stickman"--all I have is the 20 second intro right now but I am SO excited. The storyboard is totally done. It will easily be a three month project but I'm gonna post each section once it's finished.

Happy 51st Birthday to Elliott!! I've started using toned paper recently and I'm finally starting to like it.

He helped me survive through this decade, honestly.

I'm in Portland OR right now (traveled from the Boston area) and I can really see why Elliott loved this city. I'm hoping to eventually check out the house he wrote Roman Candle in before I leave. Here's a drawing I did of him on the plane ride, it's literally been ages since I've drawn him and my whole art style has changed since then lol

TWO MORE PRE-HEATMISER ELLIOTT SMITH SONGS THAT HAVE BEEN LEAKED! I am literally freaking out.

Three (Murder of Crows) is a very early version of King's Crossing, and Catholic (Harum Scarum) is a very early version of Everybody Cares Everybody Understands.

I can't believe this is happening. Crossing my fingers that all the songs from Stranger than Fiction, Murder of Crows, and Harum Scarum will be posted.

I was just thinking how it would be super duper cool if there was a 20 year anniversary release for XO this summer~ I guess I can only hope
