“For me, drawing has always been the most fundamental way of engaging the world. I’m convinced… that it is only through drawing that I look at things carefully…. and the act of drawing makes me conscious of what I’m looking at. If I wasn’t drawing, I have a sense that I wouldn’t be seeing… For me, drawing has always been an absolutely primary way of encountering reality. I’m astonished by drawing, I always think of every drawing as a kind of miraculous occurrence…”

– Milton Glaser on drawing, a transcript of a short film by C Coy

drawing excerpt at Unsound Festival’s Panel Discussion

I’m back in New York for a spell, to check out the Unsound Festival, and see Sepalcure play their first show at Bass Mutations, alongside Pole, 2562, Untold, and others. Stop by and say hello! Recently, I’ve recorded some live drawing videos to the music of Sepalcure, which is a collaboration of Percussion Lab’s Praveen and Machinedrum. Expect additional videos and more to come.

Thanks to Jakub Alexander for the kind mention alongside Sepalcure, in the ISO50 blog.

Thanks to Behance for featuring the videos on their main page, this week.

Started out with a pastel palette and quickly realized that I was crafting a hand-rendered collage of a My Little Pony / Robin Sparkles mash-up. Embraced the err of my ways and proceeded to trudge forth with a ornamental / graphic novel homage to Pestilence, which I feel fairly awkward about.
