Arting Not Manufacturing

I beat myself up for not being creative enough. Meaning: not productive enough. Which is bullshit. Art isn't about being productive, it's about arting.

Sure... you have to do things to be arting. But I strongly dislike the language of the workplace being interposed on my creative life. I do not produce content, nor do I manage a brand, nor do I make deadlines or meet expectations. Fuck all that noise.

I art. I try my damnedest to art as much as I can, but I'll suck a donkey cock before I let myself become a fucking robot about it. Or, worse, a god damned businessman.

So here's some stuff I drew over the weekend. I drew these on some cheap paper for acrylics. Kinda has a canvas-like texture. I like how it feels. I think it takes the alcohol markers in a nice way.

 

Fastner and Larson

 I've been picking up some SQP books lately because they are fun and cheap. CHEAP FUN.

I do love Fastner and Larson art. It's so silly and over the top. It's quite a bit generic, in the sense that all the women are trad model types. But still, I like their style. They lean toward cartoony, which is where I live.
