I felt like putting up a new blog header. Of course with a (typical of me) "built-in" reference to Ria Irvin's Eustace Tilley (The New Yorker magazine's iconic corporate character). This here started btw as a scratchy piece I picked out of a pile of StarDucks ballpoint test sketches.
When I come to consider it, my machines - all of them - have a strong reference to André Franquin's mad vehicles and machines...
This fake cover can fall in the category "The Duckish Face of Eustace Tilley":
This is more adequate, I guess:

Great new blog title image! :-)
ReplyDeleteLooking at this make me think of Dark Wing Duck. I miss cartoons like that. Great Post!
ReplyDeleteI like! Looking forward to the book!
ReplyDeleteI have had the utmost fun watching this blog ever since I found it through The Art Center blog. I am most interested in the way you use color.
ReplyDeleteIf you ever get the time, I would love to see more of your process on how you both choose and use colors. I love the one piece you did where you showed the candy/Popsicle wrapper and chose those colors for your work.
Great stuff and a real inspiration.
Thanks for sharing.
Great job man! I like the new header!
