Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I think that I will work on my painting skills this summer. My wife bought me some brushes, so that might help...

Some of these are destined to become paintings (digital). I've gone through the process with a couple others, but need the practice. I don't know why the scans look so bad. Oh well.

nah, just using GIS and photoshop to bring the elements together. even the balloons and panels were made in PS. I guess a comic-making app woulda made things a bit more convenient, but I ain't always about convenience.

Bikes: surly cross-check, cannondale CAAD8 optimo 1

some bad photos of recent works in progress. I tried like 5 times but still couldn't get them to upload right, so the tops and bottoms are kinda cut off, which sucks cus you miss some of the text. moo.

anyway, last month I was really into angsty text based crayon drawings, many of which are based on song lyrics (bonus points if you know artist/song). these were more of reactions and acts of convenience rather than conscious efforts to make good art, but I like the way some of them turned out.
I've recently moved on to painting, working with my two favorite things, maps and fabric.
