Goodness Gracious



Alrighty. I put my money where my mouth is and took a shot at the This American Life theme.

Other nice things: All new "Project Runway" episodes | discovering an old, old ska mix-tape in my car (as oppossed to a long forgotten tupperware container *shudder* | nasturtiums from my sister's garden | homemade iced tea | finishing up a baby blanket for previously mentioned baby niece | the fact that the giant outdoor ant sculpture is no longer headless.

This piece is wonderful. The pose and easy look down on the robot's part make the relationship solid. The colour palette is subtle and in this way becomes bold. All of your colour palette's intrigue me and I've learned much from seeing your work.

Thanks!

I always love your drawings. Lots of whimsy, a personal favorite as an attribute.

Nice job. I think I might know the episode you are drawing from (school kids fake camera/news broadcasting episode perhaps?) I hope you win!

Thanks! Crystal, your work is really lovely.

As far as episodes, I was sort of thinking of the "Kid Logic" one, but just in general kind of keeping within the offbeat/quirky feel of most of the shows.

Ahh! You found an old ska mixtape!?! I'm afraid most of mine have degraded too much. If you ever put it on CD I would totally barter something for a copy, you know, if you want.

Hmm... I think my sister has the originals I taped off of still, so I'll do some rummaging around!
