ALLISON SCHULNIK





Wowza! I love her paintings, and the sad "Hobo Clown" animation.

Prayer Requested book description

Here is the book description from Amazon. BUY BUY BUY!

Succinctly stated and punctuated with a sharp-edged visual style, Prayer Requested presents a narrative of illustrations and collages, each one accompanied by a found or scavenged prayer. First excerpted in Nicolas Robel’s B.ΓΌ.L.B Comix, the works of Prayer Requested are equal parts inspiring, amusing, enlightening, and in some cases entirely peculiar, each marrying heartfelt intent with frank, unflattering interpretation.

With a roster of clients that includes The New York Times, Playboy, and Rolling Stone, Christian Northeast provides illustrations that are honest and without reservation. They represent a creativity and freedom of thought and form, cleverly depicting the intimacy, urgency, and absurdity of these found prayers with a sense of explicit surrealism.


I'm not sure what "explicit surrealism" is, but I think it's good.

Japanese Match labels










I posted a bunch of these when I used to be on Drawger. I have a scrapbook full of them. They seem to be from the late 20's to late 30's. I think they would look great blown up as posters.

I love a bargain.


I bought a Japanese tin toy bullet train just like this one at a flea market on the weekend. It only cost me 20 dollars. You can buy the one pictured above for 300 dollars on Ebay. I love finding good junk at low prices.

George Jones licensing savvy


I love George Jones music, but I'm holding off on this " tribute" gun. Isn't listening to his music tribute enough? I suppose I could listen to his music with the trusty rifle by my side...keep people off my property.

It's 2000 bucks!
