Text!-I've already got one or two designs that will have "UNGOVERNABLE" in a banner.
I eventually want to enclose artfully made zines with each purchase, but that's as far as I plan to get at publishing much text again.
After I decided to work on monsters and gods for bags and a gorgeous silkscreened calendar, I woke up to Jeff Childer's image of a kraken on his coffee and covid yesterday i think.... yes it was written here first in text... that and Kimberly and old Kay Neilson book I found in garage brought me home...
But SEEING THE IMAGE ...eeek! Oh yesssss!....does what text takes longer and harder to do... erotica VS.an online money shot. you use words to seduce listener/reader to do the imagining from their own psyche.
If writing is seduction, images are rape. PETA videos. I want my art to seduce AND rape because... well as that prof said... the worst thing for an artist is to be ignored.
Back to the art nouveau tendrils of a beautiful rape
Images ...I see what William Bonzai on zerohedge sees...that's why I find his daemonic oprahs and Obamas comforting...because I don't have to pretend I see otherwise.
And I love kraken and Medusa and serpents and art nouveau because meandering phallic symbols everywhere...why not?
When I got here in '94, writing took over. But I'm a cartoonist. I think pervy and creepy like one.
envisioning balacing perfecting and merely making such lines physically feels dreamy and tingly like tiny dancing but not like peeing over hoods of cars... something more private atop the covers of the blank white sheet...
So after hairy palm apotraic (!) kraken ideas ...these drawings take many weeks to pull off and I wanna do many color separations...but no room and much equip.. too much equipment to buy...
I was an artist back in Philadelphia and knew all the old secret stuff there/not here.
I did many searches for silk screen studio to rent time at...
Google sucks for unpopular things like doing real things in the real world
No dice.
So I got realistic (boring) much sooner than I wanted to and quickly started scaling back the crazy complicated color combinations and designs that got me finally excited (like my offering to the "ungovernable" concept)...
But then... deep in reading about something else on printing tecniques, I found out there's such a thing as a cheap printing studio just down the street on mission, at the mission cultural center!
I'd done about a dozen different searches and bupkus but I was wrong!
So "crazy ambitious colorful" is hella back!
Just down the street!
I can pull this off because miracles not only happen but there are so many of 'em just lying around WAITING.

I'm such a putz sometimes.
So there it is. It's all coming together....
