I asked her to be more careful, but she shouted something about her “pride legacy” and threw the SUV at me.
In “American Kaiju”, an armed woman is cheerfully destroyed a suburban community, like a Sardinian Godzilla. Her expression; she knows we are watching. It seems that she cares more about our reaction than the little ones below. Whatsupwit dat?
I admit, I’m tired of America, and some unflattering expressions of American culture have spread into my art…or, in her case, I’m broken. I asked her to be more cautious, but she shouted at her “legacy of pride” and threw a SUV at me.
Like Godzilla, I have a crush on her (what the hell is my problem)…
She has a real folk charm. A real meat n’Pototheres Gal.
In “Team Dirtbag”, there is a rogue villain who crosses a polluted river. In the group, there is a witch/warlock, a little Zen mason, an untrustworthy person, a puppet-like creature, a warrior orc/goblin, a silly smirking businessman, and more. Where is the parade of immoral characters?
I imagined the group heading to a cheap buffet with a tray of Mac & Cheese and fried chicken. Plastic water cups and vinyl padded booths. Somewhere, they don’t have stinky eyes because everyone in this place looks like it’s possible to rob a bank or build a Frankenstein.
Have you completely planned a piece like this before you put pencil into paper? If so, how many?
I usually approach the drawing with a fairly fulfilling psychological image and then spend hours n’ hours drawing each component in the composition. By the time I started building the “final draft” I had a bunch of scruffy coffee-stained doodles.
Does the characters have an exhaustive backstory (as you can lie to us, we probably shouldn’t know)?
I imagine the backstory of most characters that appear in my work but are always reluctant to share. I want to leave room for people to form their own narratives/connections/opinions!
In “Gibbet’s Class 3” look beast. He/she/it is it a helping hand with the workers and humans as a plea for freedom? Or, it’s that smart tablet, so he/she/it can see how many posts it receives on “G”?
My favorite thing about this picture is ambiguity! This seems like a bad situation for all those involved, but your imagination has a lot of narrative left…I think it’s really interesting.
