MY ABBEY ROAD COVER

I did this for the "MY ABBEY ROAD COVER" initiated by balão vilela (from brazil?)


I can't really say that I have ever been a fan of the beatles, maybe I'm not old enough, maybe i'm too aware of the "good time good place" effect on their career and all the things they imported from the USA and Buddy Holly (your know, the crickets -> the beatles) at a time when english audience had little to no acces to the US rock culture. As a kid I used to go to a record retal service every week to build up my rock culture, and I remember listening to "blackbird" for a week on the white album. something between me listenting to blackbirds at night. or birds in general. or black in general? or night. or insomnia. or whatever. or waiting?
eh...

103 contained




I felt like doing something new. drawing does not come easy lately.
I started from a skeleton to fill it with all the thing it contained.
the original image is an archeopterix
the first animal found with feathers. more important, the first animal to go beyond its own limitations and sublimate its own nature. from the surface of the ground it climbed up in the air.
I keep it with me as a reminder that life is not necessary if you don't try to make it more than what you already are.

it would probably look beter with less blur effects but I'm lazy. mostly made out of orchids and suhis photos I took this morning ("honey, are you taking pictures of the sushis ?!")

102 This week's topic is: resolve


oh well, maybe tomorrow

oh well, they're family, might as well fade in

oh well, you just have one life, might as well not last too long and end fast.

this hollyday season has just been two shitty weeks of chores and obligations. then what ?
should I resolve myself to live that shitty loveless life for the rest of eternity or should my 2009 resolution be to get out of this stinky boring life once and for all ?

101-clandestine - redux with redemption

the cutie kitty cat down under is the original post. it sucks so much I really think you deserve another one...

101 - ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY : CLANDESTINE BIS


Beware of the clandestine readhead hiding in the shadow.. ahahahhmmm




yeah I know, I'm ashamed I fell into the cuttie kitty category this week but it was the only positive idea I had. (I hate sordid realism)
cats. years ago this little red hair clandestine creature imposed herself into our home, she's stoopid, she pukes a lot and she falls from the furniture when she falls asleep. she was thrown out of the window of a flat at the back of our garden after one of her room mate came out of prison.
problem is we only have two pair of knees so arsouille the big black ball of meet and fur and iris the tiny single canine grey ball of softness don't see her with too much comprehension.
but everybody falls for a hot redhead with a lack of affection in the end.



and since it's THAT part of the year, happy new year everyone, may 2009 be made of honey and coco milk.

Adios Illo Friday

After almost a year without post, I hereby officially declare this blog DEAD. You can scroll though my work on my webpage at www.papazogla...
