  • do you do commissions/art trades? i would very much like a smoking audrey. can i perchance interest you in an eraserhead baby plush. you can squeeze it and it doesn't count as child abuse

    I'm down to take requests - I could try my hand at drawing/painting Sherilyn Fenn as Audrey again, but I'd rather deliver on my promise before anything is potentially exchanged as I'm not known for having a reputable work ethic
    An Eraserhead plush sounds adorable

    yeh, that's understandable. i have learned over the years i have to make what i'm in the mood to, n if my heart's not in it it's never going to get finished
    i miss i think it was your dream thread on the last edf version. if not i at least associate you with a dream blog thread. either way the mail truck is an hr behind schedule so i am blogposting the weird dream i had here. you are free to ignore this if you wish to do so:
    i was a tourist, walking around a town i had not been in by myself, and there was a big union station type building with a lot of foot traffic. the bottom floors were all modern design with car imagery on one side for some reason, and it was on the side of a hill so these were the lower parts, but as you went uphill the building grew older and there was a brick spire that was on fire in the very top and when i went to take a picture the fire stopped suddenly. nobody else around noticed it or was concerned but i was curious and so i went inside the older area. there was a theater and a ventriloquist dummy was in it untouched on top of all the burned area. it was possessed or something and was trying to energy vampire me like the drifter tribe in the doctor sleep movie. as i tried to flee it was like i was moving in slow motion as everybody on the way out was walking like a sped up film, and it seemed like the modern area was expanding accordingly to keep me in the building within the puppet's range

    The gas station cigar ad in the electrical storm maybe I was thinking of

    it wasn't a place i remember. in dream it felt foreign to me.
    i don't dream a lot but whenever i do it's basically like this all heavy on the symbolism and cryptic imagery... would definitely explain my love for lynchian stuff

    i got bombarded a few weeks back on the mail route with an art idea that "felt right" when made a certain way and i had to find out later why it did. my brain is a tangled ball of yarn

    RIP Drew Sturzan - The posters have a number of beautiful qualities the dogmatism of the fine art label would never assume

    they were basically just full on paintings made with love and care, n now today's posters can see stock images in them. then the wording had to be pulled from old letraset catalogs and stenciled on. same process with old vhs front covers back in the 80's in most cases too.
    i dunno, i walk through the movie section of the store n look at covers that are just silhouettes and lazy sans serif lettering and it's joyless and doesn't catch the eye at all. more and more i miss this sort of overlooked "lower class" art meant for the masses. i get the same discontent looking at old shelving and dressers with scroll edging and elegant handles vs mass produced minimalist cube
    how's the art going? i am hitting a textile crafts mental blockage atm

    It's going pretty poorly I found someone who I've been talking to a lot and doing anything besides drawing most of the time
    Somewhat of a dearth of ordinary ideas besides that like yourself - I'm going to take small steps towards getting back into it, wrote copying of other ideas until I can figure out how to do things again

    i am glad you are spending time with a person and conversing.
    i started paying into a crafts-maker co-op n now a considerable chunk of my time is spent navigating shipping fees and reading company by-laws and then watering crops so when it comes time to actually sew i have too many ideas to settle on one i like
    the impatience of wanting all the ideas out instead of trying to set shipping prices on the off-chance someone from indonesia would buy something...
    i know the blockage will pass when the paperwork heap is done, and that i did this to myself, but it is still "aaaaaaahh"
    I think I've developed full-on sociopathy in the last 24 hours
    I can feel the thirty-something polycule fat energy dripping from my brain, something's even wrong with this sentence
    Unfortunately I can't kill myself without ramping up and there's no ramp
