well, it made sense to me. I sat in the James St. Tavern drawing this while Karen jammed away at the Jazz Kitchen session. She does a good line in Tom Waits.
(Hover text: Any Molesworth fans out there?)
I hope I invented this one — it’s been sitting around on my “to do” pile for some time now. If not, please let me know who it was.
Not much to say here except that we watched the strangely poignant yet amusing film “We Have A Pope” the other day. Exactly one pope seems to be the preferred number.
just in case you thought that I spent my time on holiday idly, thinking only of myself. No! I was also thinking “how can I torture invisibules readers with appalling puns?”
Happy Friday 13th.
For those mystified by the appointment at 3pm, see this incredible animated short.
Adam had us drawing comics inspired by random words this week. I was shocked to get “Darth Vader” and “flying Ninjas” together with the more tractable “an unexpected visitor.” Not being into martial arts films, ninjas have somewhat passed me by, so I substitued vaguely Middle-Eastern warriors. Having seen Star Wars just the once (when it came out) I didn’t remember much about Darth — maybe he isn’t as cuddly as I remember. I left off the panel with the group hug, just in case.
I have left myself some important but unanswered questions with today’s publication. Firstly, why do so many of my comics involve the consumption of the characters by other characters. But more importantly, where did that guinea pig come from?
By now I really shouldn’t have to apologise for this kind of humour.
So I’m not going to.
I found a great big art book in a charity shop today — “German and Austrian Painting of the 15th-18th Centuries in the Hermitage.” Apart from the book title and the painting titles in English, the text is in Russian, which I can hardly even read, let alone understand. So I’ve had to interpret this one for myself. It’s “The Annunciation” by Anton Raffael Mengs.
The Hermitage looks like a magnificent place — it was the setting for the astonishing film Russian Ark (2002).
