TTTM contest envelope #5

Register Guard 'Your Ticket to the Movies' Contest envelope #5.
( a quick marker rendition of an.......orange; 
i just noticed that the bumps of the orange's surface 
really looks dimensional and realistic! It tends to 
happen when you have to rush an illy out and 
not think too much 
about it.)

2 new custom MIDNIGHT OIL covers


   There wasn't a CD cover for the Oil's Jim Ladd's
Living Room concert in L.A., so i made one; 
and the MIDNIGHT OIL'S BLACK RAIN FALLS 'Special Guerilla Action
in NYC was a stale cd cover, so i revised that one (i re-scanned my video cover!).
(If you can d/l the 'Jim Ladd's Living Room' bootleg, there's 
great un-plugged music and banter! [ sniff...right B4 they dismantled ]
The 'agit prop' gig in NYC is a classic.)

Petrograd & Zahra's Paradise

I read two historical fiction, graphic novels in 3 days! 
(About 480 pages! Not quite Les Miserables or War & Peace but...)
I highly recommend them for their 
line work (Petrograd 1st, and Zahra's Paradise a close second), 
intriguing story-line, history, research and information.
Tyler Crook's artwork and brush style in PETROGRAD, pulled you into 
the dark and cold world of the city, minds and souls. I liked the awesome art a bit 
more than the story; the story at times was vague and confusing.

The artwork of Khalil in ZAHRA'S PARADISE was 
lively and well thought out for all the details of the 
oppressed people of Iran in 2009. 
I liked the story better than the artwork, but both were symmetrical.

Register Guard 'YTTTMC' envelope #3


Dee dee

They put these ads in the 'bluespaper' for orphaned
animals. The shelter's name has been changed so they
won't howl or growl @ me. My favorite line is 
"Who needs two eyes anyway!"
(reminded me of the verse from Matthew 5:29! Was 
Dee dee an adulterer?!)
