PORTFOLIO DAY!

portfolio day wasnt that bad!! last year it was awful. i talked to 3 schools and got some good critiques. at first we were just looking for the shortest lines, and i was standing facing away from this one table, and the guy started talking to me. turns out it was SVA from new york. and i used to live in NY, so we talked about that for a bit. then he critiqued my work, and he turned out to be really cool. he gave me this huge book to look at. then i talked to this equally cool dude from MIAD. he gave me some good critiques as well. i guess i need some meaning to my work. i didnt really come prepared with anything to say, and wasnt ready to be interrogated, so i told them basically the truth, and that just wasnt gonna cut it for an art school. basically i learned that you shouldnt have to bullshit anything, it should have the meaning from the beginning, and thats what im lackin. so now i have something to work on! the lady from PNCA talked really quietly and i couldnt really hear most of what she was saying. plus she just got really mad that she couldnt see the thumbnails i brought. get some glasses. stop drinkin that hatorade

LSD NO NO

A little while ago i found this clip dedicated to dock ellis. the legendary baseball player who threw a no hitter on acid. not only was this clip extremely entertaining, but the types of illustrations really hit home for me. im thinking of trying to incorperate some of this style into my works. any thoughts?

great poem

Beheading


He is bemused by the priest, He slants his head like a beast.The priest does not stop, He is sacrificing with a chop-chop! The head of his pride and ownershipShall vanish like a bombed airstrip.Apostles say that murder is forbiddenFor the human race. According to his abdomen.
