Sketchbook and refridgerator

The arts quad. i took this picture at the end of summer. i'll take another 'fall' one soon
ithaca falls
ithaca is gorges
woohoo
i made that!

On our refrigerator in the common room i always make up something with the magnets. last year i had a nude woman, and then we printed out britney spears' face and taped it to the top. it was actually really freaky it was as if britney was really just naked and kneeling on the floor of the room. anyways this time its some lady and a guy. here is a close up of the faces and you can see the magnets are those word ones.


This is the whole thing. the guy is being classy and drinking wine and the lady is just going for it. A bunch of people have come in and seen it and complimented it and so i thought i'd post.

This is the sketchbook assignment. for some reason my scanner scans at a diagonal so i posted two pictures. this is the guy. whatever his name was. i read two of his stories...three of his stories to think of ideas but once i saw what he looked like i had to do it. He looks just like his main characters. washed up middle aged loser cheated on wife and with a gambling problem. can you imagine shaving under your rolls of fat on your chin?


newsflash: we talked to this guy, and he's pretty cool. i got mad respect yo.

  1. Fuck you and Fuck Ithaca. I am so jealous. It is so pretty there. I feel like your in one of those old timey English colleges where all my old english gay literature takes place, like Oxford or Cambridge. FUCKKK.

    I like the statue. It would be so cool to come upon while hiking.

    I love the magnet thing, it's so weird. Why would you think to make that out of magnets?


    I laughed when I read your "can you imagine shaving under your rolls of fat on your chin?"
    You are such a jerk. I looked up his name to make sure that we were not google-able to him, and unless he cross references his name with "doodle" or something, we should be OK.
    You're right, I can believe we are giving this dude fanart, of sorts

    But I love your picture. He looks like such a creepy loser. Like a serial killer, or a dude who is addicted to porn.
    Actually, he kinda looks like Phillip Seymour Hoffman, except I like that dude.

    I like the way you did his hair most of all. It looks like water.

  2. haha i didn't even think to do a portrait of the guy himself. how weird.
    but yeah, overall i really like it. i'm particularly interested in the hair as well. very stylized.

    this might sound weird but i'm starting to feel like all of our styles are beginning to look the same. normal galpals sync up on their periods. we start drawing alike.

    and the waterfall makes me so depressed. the other day i was walking around in reed canyon and thinking to myself how beautiful it was and how lucky i was to be able to walk over a lake every day going to and from class...and then i went on the doodleblog, saw your pictures, and my life became sad again.
