SUSPENSE!

HELLO GOOD READERS. I'm going underground and am not sure when I'll be back up for air. It's been wonderful to share and correspond with you in this way. I hope to meet again down the line.

Very Best, Nick

Cheers!

IN THE VEIN OF FOUND ART let's look at the Cheerios box. I enjoy looking at commercial photography and trying to discern the subtext. TD Canada Trust is the best. They've got a whole slough of questionable images. Or how about the Rogers adverts that come in the mail filled with images that make television watching into this amazing group participatory love-in. This content affects human beings. Eye contact is everything.

Quill Head

I MISS THE CROW QUILL. I spent 3 years of my youth drawing exclusively with a crow quill following Dave Sim's technique. I drew 5 issues of my black & white indie road movie comic, The Cheeseheads.

This photo was taken of Max MacDonald as a cheesehead circa 1993.

Hungry Ghost #2

HERE'S MY OWN HUNGRY GHOST image. I drew this up and pasted it to the inside of a file drawer. Whenever I'm turning into that vacuum flaky artist person I try to ponder the content of this hasty sketch.
