David Lynch.
Loved the dark, surreal, and also whimsicaly absurd art he gave us. His ABC film was delectable in its hauntingness, contrasted with the polarizing 'On the Air'; Kooky fun that ended too soon, just like him. And yes I do prefer his more imaginative Dune!
Rest in Peace
#DavidLynch

A study of NicCage from 'Wild at Heart' lying on a bed, topless and sockless, wearing just jeans as he balances an old timey radio between his feet above him and plays around with the power cable, depicted using image ghosting. Keyline of Laura Dern hovers over his face, as well as a bunch of different coloured hands all reaching out from the top of the image down towards Nic to connote memories and missed connections (I'd also adapted the study for a vinyl EP that didn't get picked up) #WildatHeart #NicolasCage #LauraDern

A group of characters from TwinPeaks, Agent Dale Cooper (eating some pie), The Giant, BoB, The Man from Another Place and even a log with David Lynch's face and the Duckman from The Third Place Playstation 2 adverts are in the Black Lodge. It is implied that we are looking at the event through the eyes of the Duckman, as the coffee cup he is holding is also in the foreground, with a Laura Palmer face obscured in it. What's more optical arty, is that BoB is clutching the left side of the couch, but also appears on the right side of the couch clutching another couch, with allusions to another Cooper and Giant, as the phrase goes "It is Happening Again" #AgentCooper #TheThirdPlace #BoB #ManfromAnotherPlace #Coffee #LauraPalmer #Giant #BlackLodge #TwinPeaks

A group of characters from TwinPeaks, Deputy Hawk, Sherif Truman, Agent Cooper/Dougie Jones and Lucy Brennan (and a ludicriously fake bush disguised Windom Earle, aswell as the more subtle 'evolved' form of 'The Arm') are outside, infront of a blackboard with suspect names, a table stacked full of donuts, and behind those, stacks of chopped wood logs amidst a forest. One of the group, Agent Cooper/Dougie Jones is throwing a stone with a marking on it, with enough force to kick up dust as it sores across a black oil puddle surrounded by stones that hides the infamous Black and White Chevron floor pattern of the Black Lodge. The rock has hit and exploded a glass bottle ontop of a log, though we can only see the various shards of glass splintering off, each with reflections of BoB and Dale Cooper in them, as another onlooker shields their eyes. A print of this framed as well as unframed, is available at Gallery1988 in LA, USA.

Saw something that @realgdt.bsky.social said the other day, and remembered I had something I started a while ago that I should finish up.

I'm so tired of all this.

Only one week left until Shortbox ends! 😭

Today I want to show you all the work behind a single comic book page, from the end result to the inking, sketch, thumbnail... and my humble attempt at writing a script/notes where I pour out the initial ideas.

I hope you find it interesting! 🤧

"normies do not care about this thing and so it is no use raising a stink" is imho just an excuse for not doing politics, which is the job of making normies care about something

my berserk fancomic, "WHEN I WAS A CHILD, I WATCHED A MAN DISMEMBER A DOVE", is now available during all of october for shortbox comics fair!

www.shortboxcomicsfair.com/shop-sq4wj/p...

The cover page, reading "When I was a child, I watched a man dismember a dove." It looks like an illuminated manuscript. An image of Griffith as a child is painted in the middle in an oval frame. He wears the Behelit.

A page from the comic. A dove spreads its wings in the center. Below the text reads: "What I meant is that I [BLANK] you." The [BLANK] part is covered by paintings of flowers. Paint streaks across the entire piece.

A page from the comic. The text reads "There are two ways this memory can go. I watched in silence, and learned. Or I screamed, cried, and did not." The colors are lavender, gold, and red.

A page from the comic. Streaks of paint smear across the scene. A child reaches for something on the ground that could be a feather. The text reads: "What's the word?"
