Hey, I never said it wasn't art.

I just said that they're "Things I Can't Draw."

I encourage everybody to make a similar page. No consulting reference material.

So I take it you have not seen the work of David Shrigley? You can go to his website here: http://www.davidshrigley.com

After you see this, and understand that this man is one of the current toasts of the art world, I believe you may re-evaluate your work and your inability to draw those things - if not your current career path. *laugh*
If I can tell what they are (and I can), you have the ability to draw them.

I R an artist and I know about these things...

That makes me really depressed. I mean, good for him and all, but...

...just...

I need booze.

archanglrobriel January 20 2006, 02:56:16 UTC

Yes, actually. So do I. Viewings of Shrigley's work usually has that effect on me...

Benjamin Stone, Esquire illustrator. No, I don't feel a ring to it there.

Benjamain Stone, Mad Magazine illustrator. But, wait, they want actual artists.

Fuck Esquire.

Your drawings look SO MUCH like those of a guy from my college's humor magazine. Are you sure you're not a guy named Todd? Even your printing is the same.

(Where did Becky go? Maybe she can confirm this as well.)

In the Kindling? There was an animal he'd draw all the time...what was it...arrrgh *rubs eyes*

I think it was supposed to be a monkey, but it looked like a teddy bear. No, wait, it was an ape.

vash1228 January 22 2006, 06:45:27 UTC

That was it!!! It was the ape! With that chest...

"A step below Liefeld, a step above Bogdanove...or is that backwards? "

Well there goes the one liner I started looking at these thinking.

Actually, this is bloody terrific. I expect a print. Or at least a print out for my wall.
Go now!

I like how Lizard Man isn't irregular, but his pants are.

benchilada January 27 2006, 16:33:09 UTC

Me, too.
As I said over in randompictures, his clothes are from TJ Maxx, and he has to wear short sleeves only b'cause his mom was a T-Rex...
