art studio speed run

ALT: crayon and gold ink. fast calligraphic doodle, looks like some being running by. I did indeed get into the studio – but only for a minute or two. So this is what you get.

pulling the string

or, “Miss Dysanthropoid and the Misanthropic Boid” (title from Jeff Colby)

ALT: crayon and ink drawing. One odd being is holding a string connected to a series of perhaps pulleys. Another stands with their arms upraised. A bird watches from above. This is all happening in a thicket of bare trees, and there’s maybe an opening or door up above where the pulleys hang.

playing with my friend the octopus

ALT: crayon and ink drawing. A sort of person faces out, arms upraised and leaning over or forward, nest to a shape that could indeed be an octopus, two or three tentacles upraised and the rest holding it up like a forest of legs. There’s another person in the background, so I think it could be at a park or something. It might be raining.

fox in town

ALT: crayon and ink drawing, whimsical. A seated red fox in the lower right corner, a pink and red bird perched in the upper left. A couple of buildings slanting crazily, and three big moons in non-astronomical space.

blue bones

ALT: crayon and ink drawing, abstract. The background is blue and purple vertical loose stripes. Overlaid is an organic, somewhat mycelial web of black and dark blue, woven through a loose structure of white and gold branchy shapes. There are also some dots. I don’t know, make of it what you will. It’s what my eyes and brains wanted to see at the time.

world eye

ALT: crayon and ink drawing, abstract, calligraphic. Black ink line overlay a ground of yellow red and blue. A double circle is the dominant shape, and it is intersected and broken by lines and angles. There’s blue in the center, like sky, and you could see it as looking upward from the bottom of a cylinder I suppose.

many moons

ALT: crayon and ink drawing, abstract. there are 7 or so circles you could read as moons, one or two indicate the crescent within the circle. They are in a vaguely spiralling pattern. There are orange flame-like shapes rising through the middle of the page. The moon in the lower left corner seems to be by a window or grate that lets in some light. A couple of the moons could serve as eyes for the flames, if that were a being. Seeking to draw energy from chaotic overwhelm, and moments of serenity for respite.

dream visitors

ALT: crayon and ink drawing, mostly blue with yellow lights. There’s a sleeping person on the bottom left, they only look a little worried. Floating around on the rest of the page are a number of characters: a fat bird, something with a very pointy face, a couple of people one older, one younger. Child-like stars drawn above, three of them. Lots of windy, floaty lines hanging it al together.

the scrolling of doom

ALT: mixed media drawing, abstract. Lots of black agitated fat lines over a lot of darker blues and purples, and a bit of orange. Some white calligraphic lines over all. There was a big face to start, and maybe you can still see it there.
