Home of Mirth

Sometimes I make art. Sometimes I reblog other people's art. Every so often I stream.

Self Portrait while Sick. This exists because I was apparently completely delirious last week, more so then I knew. I have thus far had two different friends inform me that they had Very disjointed conversations with me during that time. Somewhere during that I started this sketch, and seeing as I am STILL not totally healthy I have tossed some color onto it.

The things I find on my adventures....

Remembered that I never actually posted the finished Edward Scissorhands art sooo...here we are! Progress shots, finished hands, and then a shot of them up on our wall display for Halloween!

Sketchbook page from last night at Beetle House. I go there to draw and have strange conversations.

Things you see on an after Halloween walk.

From the sketchbook. Turned into a paint and ink miniature that I gave away before thinking to take a photo of it, so this is what you get. I know some people manage to have sketchbooks that are all pretty, but mine is a multi layered mesa of whatever slips out of my head.

My manager at my day job asked me to do some Edward Scissorhands art for us to put up on the wall. So of course I slice into my finger while cutting it out.

Some Quotes From my Art History Professor:

“Caravaggio was the BEST renaissance painter, because he knew his shit.  Literally.  Look at this painting, he’s painted shit on everything, even Saint Peter!”

“For those of you fortunate enough to Not grow up catholic, a baptism is where you mist a baby like an orchid to keep it from going to hell.”

“You get Extra Credit for you eerily comprehensive knowledge of Muppets.  Now stop talking.”

“GOD I love flying buttresses.  They’re so melodramatic!”

“I don’t call him “Da Vinci” because that means “From Vinci”.  That’s like calling Steve “Of Greeley” instead of his real name and that’s just rude.  And not just because Greeley is Awful.”

“Michelangelo was really depressed because his job sucked.  Also because he was a bit of a douche, but mostly the job.  He should have been doing literally anything else.”

“Everything can be improved with a Simpson’s reference!”

“Send me Memes, I like having recent content in my lectures.” *Next day* “Stop sending me memes. Please.”

*whilst angrily pointing at a picture of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles* “The Turtles have all their names mixed up for their personalities and frankly that’s embarrassing.  The techie should be Leo, the Flirt should be Raphael, The Boring Leader Dude should be Donatello and the angry one should be Carvaggio because that asshole literally spent his life drunk, fighting people and blackmailing cardinals.  Carvaggio was the BEST.”

“I could have studied in Rome. I could be trying to match boxes of broken dicks to statuary.  Instead of dicks I have you assholes.”

“Warhol was, as you young people say, A Troll.  The art is not the Art, the Outrage is the Art.  Which is kind of a Dick Move, which we old people say too.”

“Remember Kids- mental illness and heavy metal poisoning are not actually substitutes for Talent and Hard Work! Get therapy and don’t drink your paint water!”
