I like to create a mood and then kill it with a machine gun

We artist be giant teases, amiright?

Pity I don't have a female model I can command around like this.

I don't draw from life often. As a matter of fact, I always kinda sucked at it and hated it. Too used to draw things from my head. But once in a while, there's this one, extra-complicated pose that annoys me. So I tell my boyfriend to strip down to his underpants and torture him. For art.

Also...



A few of the French artists I follow online did these amazing re-tellings of Popeye for the "24 hour comic jam" at the Angoulème festival this year. Many of these are GEMS. If you can read French, give it a go... [link]

I just wanted to add my own Popeye and Olive to the mix.

Trying out some new coloring tricks with this piece. Oh, the background texture is a print by the Japanese artist Hokusai.
