Based on one of my favourite myths. This comes from Haida legend.

Probably my most complicated remix. I took elements from different artists, traced them, then inked and coloured them. The wolf is by Kebeo. Red is by CamilleSmith023. The huntsman is a traced and altered version of cat-cat's Lionel drawing, and the arm pose of the ax is from Tara Marie. The text of course, is by JulesKD.

Not sure where this idea came from. A little birdie told me?

This is a remix of count's fab original sketch. Done in gig poster style inspired by the work of Bob Masse. EDIT: Wow! Thank you all for the feedback. I'm honoured!

Still rough! Might try another version. But you get the idea! Music is eaneikciv's great Tiny Tune!

I do not know where I came up with this idea, but here it is!

Rough cut of The Nobodys, Episode 1: Viral Serialized radio drama

STARRING:

rayperez as Ricky

Pamagotchi as Violet

Proi as Smash Radio Announcer

Written and directed by Proi

Background music by lava_tornado

Tom/Sid/Sound Effects/Music etc...MAYBE YOU!

Clearly not finished. Check out the collab for all the bits that are still needed.

I challenged myself to do a drawing, start to finish, in the time my camera battery lasts (a little over an hour.) The only set concept was the series of boxes, and the only time I erased anything (or did anything in pencil) was in the initial layout.

Music is Metaphorest's lovely "Oh, Captain."

This is a lower quality version of the drawing. I used my camera rather than the scanner. At least you can see the whole thing! The joke comes from a line in the play about puppets not being able to be lewd because of not having any sex organs. Hence the kiltlifting.

[Puppet Leander.] Here, Cole, what fairest of fairs Was that fare, that thou landedst but now at Trig-stairs?

[Cokes.] What was that, fellow? Pray thee tell me, I scarce understand 'em.  

[Leatherhead.] Leander does ask, sir, what fairest of fairs Was the fare that he landed, but now, at Trig-stairs?  

[Puppet Cole.] It is lovely Hero.  

[Puppet Leander] Nero?  

[Puppet Cole] No, Hero.

Ben Jonson, Bartholomew Fair, 1614

(Hundreds of years later, reinvented as Abbot and Costello's Who's on First?)

(copied the description from the narrower, but higher quality one resourced to this image)

I've been working on this piece for about a week. This is too large to fit on my scanner, so it's missing a lot of detail to the left and right. It's a donation for an art auction to a theatre company here called Vile Passeist who produce non-Shakespearean plays of the Elizabethan and Jacobean era. They're doing a production of a play called Bartholomew Fair.

It was quite the experience to work slowly on something. My stuff is usually intricate, but I still work on stuff in one or two sittings. This was probably about 15 hours all-told. It was also a little nerve-wracking to know that I couldn't correct any mistakes in Photoshop, and that it had to be good to be worthy of an art auction!

A fiddlehead is the immature tops of a few specific breeds of ferns that are harvested in spring and cooked as a green vegetable. They've become a symbol of my corner of the world, not just because they grow here and people have been eating them as the first green veg of the spring, but also because celtic music is a big part of the local heritage. As to why I drew an anthropomorphic immature fern playing a fiddle? Uh...well. HEY LOOK A MOOSE!

just before i died, my life flashed before my eyes.
but it flashed so slowly that i lived it all again.
and again and again.. (text by rowrowrow)

I took themetafictionist and left-coast-jane's advice and made her happy about seeing her life replayed rather than sad. I also added details in the film strip eyes.

"I think we have the wrong names," said the perch to the dove.

Alternate title: Faces on a Plane (someone gets a cookie if they spot the anomalous time on a clockperson and know why) Inspired by rayperez' "time zones" tiny story:

"Each time zone kept its own time zone name,

although, in every zone time behaved exactly the same.

From place to place, it kept a steady pace,

but every clock wore a different face..."

This mix took a lot of inspiration from "For love of the cinema" by librarygirl6. I used a lot of the same resources and the same public domain footage. This isn't as refined as I'd like it to be, but it's Canada Day! So I can't stay home all day and fine tune it (terrible, I know!)

Just a rough sketch! Haven't had time to work on anything very refined lately. Inspired by Joe's reworking of the Shadow prologue.

I'm trying to get better at using colour, so I decided to colourize this vacation sketch. I sampled the colour scheme from wirrow's piece resourced below.

...in which Proi dates herself terribly.

Just a goofy, quick, fun doodle! My history with different recording devices through the decades. I've always played around with recording devices, from a toy recorder up to whatever we had to shoot home movies on. The VHS camera was heavy as hell, but I was always playing with it. I still remember exactly what sounds it made and how it felt to have it up on my shoulder.

I loved recording so much that I took a broadcast program in 2000. Not pictured here: betacams handed down from local TV stations, miniDV cams, MiniDisc, 8-track, cart decks, Hi-8, reel to reel (yes! I cut and pasted actual tape) hard-wired studio cameras and a Marantz deck.

I think some of the charm has gone out of recording without physical media. Or at least, physical media that I can understand,

MAGIC!

Grammar humour, HAR HAR! (Can you tell I'm an English major?)

Next at 11! Five household products that could KILL YOU and YOUR PUPPY! Also the dwarves might be in danger. CHUN CHUN CHUNNNN.

An image inspired by Metaphorest's poem! Also an example of ekphrasis.

This is for a paper airplane collab. See resource below. My hand hurts. Ow! Maybe I shouldn't have tried to do this all in one day. (PS: The swirls make it go faster. Trust me.)

to where stars and horses are

Maybe someone can come up with a tiny story to go along with this!

This is page one of the "Raven Steals the Sun" myth. I've never done anything quite like this before. I can't decide if the text needs to be compressed to fit on the page, or if the text would be displayed opposite.

(Full text of the myth is resourced. I also have a more high-resolution copy of this, but the site wouldn't let me upload it.)

When the world was new, it was black. Raven grew tired of of groping around in the dark.

One day, Raven came upon the home of an old man who lived by a river with his daughter. Through cunning and sly observation, he learned that the old man held a great treasure in a bentwood box. Inside that box were dozens other boxes, at the centre of which was one that held the light of the universe.

Raven vowed to steal that light.

He was the cleverest creature, so it wasn't long before Raven came up with a plan. He waited by the river for the old man's daughter to come and gather water.

Hard to believe it's been a year since I was in Toronto! It was a great trip.

An outsider uprising from the perspective of an automated computer system.

I'd love it if someone who has software that allows more control over text did something fancier with this. This was the best I could do with my software!

This was shot on the train, Halifax to Moncton, and edited on the reverse trip. I'm not the best editor or shooter (or actor!) but it was a good exercise. If anyone is interested in the raw footage, i'd be happy to supply it.

Music is the original tiny tune that Stephen Trask posted. I feel like the train suits the rhythm nicely.

I seem to be on a kick of doing hybrid animals! Last time was a butterfly and an owl, this time it's a daisy and an iguana. Perhaps someone can come up with a story for her!
