blast from the past!

well, HEY there kiddies...

...as we delve deeper into the madness, i think it's important to remember your humble beginnings...

Out of all my notebook doodles and sketchbook renderings...I'm mostly amused by these because of the whole "gel pen" phenomenon. i...was...obsessed....

Done mostly in my junior and senior year math classes (thankyou mrs. thomas), these had really no purpose or meaning...they were just colored doodles...but as i look back on all the severed body parts and blood...it really doesn't surprise me that people were worried about me...and still are...


THE CLOCK i don't know why i'm obsessed with this imagery, but this is the first version and it was also made in pastels and acrylics.

THE SWING
Althought drawn very cartoony and comical, I love the concept of hanging helpless amongst everyone watching. I had used the same idea as a self portrait with my head being a sole lightbulb in a cavern of eyes...but hm...where the hell did that go...

GRABBERS
like flowers grow towards the sun, a strange arm plant all grabbing towards the light

DROWNING
i'm sure i had some kind of emo reason to draw this and it symbolizes me overwhelmed with some teenage problem...but really i have no idea.

BROKEN DOLL
Hahaha, i really wish i COULD remember my reasonings behind this drawing. i could make something up...but i'm pretty sure i just wanted an excuse to draw a naked chick

ORGY
Ok, i really thought i was being clever here.. pink=girl. blue=boy. together=purple. really it's just one big giant orgy...but i thought...ya know....no one would "get it". HA

LA TETE
really, i don't even like this one...i think it's kind of stupid...which is why i gave it a french name. i actually just put it up to show my complete disregard for human anatomy. check out those 2 neck bones. classic.

KISS
again, i have absolutely no clue what this is besides that i was probably daydreaming about making out. the nail? totally gratuitous. the handcuffed creature in the middle? um....

Ok, well good to see ya..i gotta go return some video tapes...
