The Whore Of Babylon

I guess I'm a sucker for the classics.

This is a panel from some new project in which comics and poetry are put together. However my writing parner is not a poet but a researcher into the world of sex workers. So we are isolating some quotes from her interviews and I'll try and think of images to them. Not quite sure how this works out, but we all should try something new, once in a while.
Instead of the markers I usually take, I am using an old-fashioned dip pen and Indian ink. Which turns out to be more fun than I thought it would be.

Where the Wild Ones Are.

Max.

Maurice.

The Gootch

I heard a really... depressing interview with Maurice Sendak on "Fresh Air" last month. Look it up if you wanna unguarded portrait of an aging icon.

The Waste

I decided to fuck around with some color ideas I've had on this guy, "the waste". For such a terrifying & gross figure I find him to be weirdly beautiful. I should do a character made out of trash like those medieval food people illustrations.

The Taste Of Water, in colour

The almost-final version of my take on this remarkable Dutch film from the early 1980s. The panel lines are still a bit off, but that has been fixed.

More Gore #6!

Que suerte Explosion

Hey kids you've to buy Que suerte, comic zine made in Spain by Olaf Ladousse!
I made 2 pages comic & a linoprint for the inside cover. Unfortunately, Olaf couldn't find a printer for lino so, for the first time I think, Que suerte cover is silkscreened. Also the inside cover have been printed wrong side, it's a mistake that I like, reminds me my own!

I can't see buying stuff yet, but you could have it at me if you want (it's 5euro for 104 xerox pages + shipping). This issue include spanish stuff, and french artists as Dav Guedin, Bertoyas, Léo Quiévreux, Craoman, and a cover by Xavier Robel. My comic is not that good but well erf!
I like Que suerte for beginners art melted to others, with comic only, cheap price, handmade covers & collages inside - a must for xerox comic zine!

Centauroid

A response to Kurt's recent "Nucklavee" post, a drawing of a similar centaur which I did for a new book (soon to be published by Alkbazz).
