Artist's Comments

Made as a reaction to Mobile Feast Utopia's "Shower Door" [link]
Really cool song, check it out.

Doing commissions would be nearly impossible for me because I can't control the output of my drawing processes. Drawing is a very robotic, almost hyper-formal ritual for me. There is absolutely no imagination or pre-visualization involved, just lots and lots of paranoia assembling random shapes into strange creatures from a sub-conscious, personal mythology.

Hey guy!

Is it just me, or is this a DRASTIC new use of negative space in your work? I looked over your thumbnails again real quick and I didn't see anything that popped like this one...

Of course, the figure huddled over the desk is the most obvious, but I see lots of other implications too...

To whatever extent it's possible (given your methods reviewed in the description), you should REALLY leverage this negative space a lot more. All your drawing is amazing and mesmerizing, but this one is a fresh NEW kind of knockout from you...

Love this . When I first saw it I immediately was reminded of that story by Harlen Ellison titled "Neon" . The colours are so vivid & striking against the black,you can almost smell and taste them{as in the story} . Fav =) (Smile)
