HEre are some cartoon characters I've been messing with. Duck and Penguin. Guess which one's which.
this is the 1st comic of D&P. It looks weird 'cause I had to scan it from Boom Comix#2, which they printed on crappy paper that ink from the other side bled through (a problem for a graphics periodical)
This is the second D&P comic I did. Same problem.
Yo yo yo, this was finished a little bit ago, it's expecting publication in the too-long-awaited Boom #3.
Just got done with this one. What I like about these characters is that they seem to write themselves -- I stand out of the way, and let them conversate. Usually its pretty banal, but I love how the punchlines are oblique, if that -- this last one really goes out of its way to miss the punchline, but the real humor comes from the characters and their relationship, i guess. To me anyway. These guys crack me up, and that's a decent spot to be in, when you crack yerself up.
Also, now that I've swamped yer computers with that crap, here's a bunch of old photos I just got developed...
this is a shot from Prague that turned out way cooler than I could have planned, back in Summer of '02. When I was still a college lad.
I love this. The woman in the distance really makes the shot.
another cool shot. black and white makes everything look timeless.
me in a cellar drunk on absinthe (nikki tol' me i looked like jeff birdwell in this picture)
A year later, from my drive across the country.
The painted desert, where I received a vision (its hard not to, out there)
The eastern sky - the sinking sun's rays reflected off a bank of storm clouds scores of miles away -- the dual, blake-ian vision that caused me to stop my car and eventually commune with the sky
Ballard C. Boyd, director of Super 7, and hoarder of panache
Ashley Nease, co star on Super 7
Much later -- about a year ago. The farewell to the Tercel at the Hollywood Impound Lot.
"...You could tell by looking at my face that I was desperate and haunted."
So there's that. Damn. That was prob'ly more trouble than it was worth.
