Find-A-Word-And-Draw-It Fortnight: Fotographical Friday – The Banner Project.

As a project for grad school I used 300 drawn-on pages to make banners that hung in the stairwell of the Gettysburg College library. You can see a video here. https://youtu.be/e6rp7XVwHAs 

Sign of the times

While doing grad school research I ran across this in a book showing the changes in cartoonist-then-cubist painter Lyonel Feininger’s signature.

I changed my signature a couple of times. The last time I did the signature I most wanted to emulate was Rick Stromoski’s. I love how odd it is to exaggerate the unimportant “M” in the middle of his name.

Me…LIVE!!!!!

Sorry about the late notice but if you happen to be in central Pennsylvania tomorrow, March 2, at noon, I’ll be speaking at Bucknell University in Lewisburg.

My cartoon-based installation, “Unbound,” has been hanging in the library stairwell there since last summer so I’ll be talking about that, Bo Nanas, MAD and cartooning in general. And I’ll have a few books with me as well.

Here’s the info.

Not forgotten

Two nights ago I was taking my first go at tackling the thesis for my MFA program. I was writing about my identity as a cartoonist which can be tricky subject. To be honest, having Bo Nanas fail did not do wonders for my confidence. Then I stumbled upon this article.

Dadding Badly – Modern art

 

This week’s Dadding Badly comic addressees grad school and drinking…but not in the way you’d think.

What I’m reading – Autobio comics

Been delving into some autobiographical comics for grad school.

And I didn’t realize till this very moment that both of these books have “…and me” titles.
