Don't Pave Over Weed!
Whoopse... did I reveal personality traits?
I like the starkness of this illustration. Did you use only a pen to render this? With any medium: I imagine the care taken to be quite substantial. The simpleness of the Dandelion takes my interest most of all to be honest; as it almost looks like it took a long time to draw little, the piece as a whole... If you get my oxymoron?
Nice job Tom-Dude.

legalize it!
...but on a less stoned note, this is actually another print i made from a copper plate. i sprayed the entire plate with an aquatint stop-out resist after i etched the dandelion, and before i put it in the acid. that's how i got the texture of the side walk. i dunno if you're into print making, but it's a very interesting process. i'm taking a print making class in college this semester, so i've been doing alot of that shit. thanks for the comment yo!
ps. breakthrough is also a bad ass modest mouse song.

Holy mutha-fuckin-bagina! You are a fan of Modest Mouse!? Tell me it is a typo. Dude. Ye surprise my sensicaly perceptiveness every tenth day...
I thought you may have just 'stifled' this entire piece. Clearly I was wrong. I'm sorrily, I'm not familiar with the techniques you use for these pieces. I am still starked by them however.
Keep up the good work you "Pretty patterns" dispositional. :]

"A Long Drive For Someone With Nothing To Think About" is my favorite album, then comes "lonesome Crowded West" then "Moon Over Antarctica" the new albums are good, but i think they lack the raw soul that the others had.
yea man, you'd like printmaking, if you're in college i recommend taking a course in it. you'd like it.

I mean, I'm not overwhelmingly consumed by Modests Mouse's material. I DL as we type; but I have a friend that is obsessed with them, so I think: 1+1 = 'DL the whole discography'.
Fair'nuff...
You got an MSN account my friend?
